Fedora 10 - Packaging of the NetBeans
Contents |
Overview
This document contains a log of activities for packaging of the NetBeans IDE 6.1 into the Fedora, Release 10.
Configuration
A NetBeans IDE 6.1 configuration with reduced set of the modules is packaged to limit number of external dependencies.
Overall list of necessary Libraries
The table below explains a list of the external Libraries that are required for the chosen configuration of the NetBeans IDE. The table also establish relation between required library and a Fedora package if it is exists.
| Required Library | Fedora 10 Package | Status |
|---|---|---|
| ./platform8/modules/ext/swing-layout-1.0.3.jar | swing-layout-1.0.3-2.fc9 | EXISTS |
| ./platform8/modules/ext/script-api.jar | As of Java 6, the Script API is included in the JRE.
| EXISTS |
| ./platform8/modules/ext/jh-2.0_05.jar | javahelp2-2.0.05-5.src.rpm javahelp2.spec | Bugzilla Bug 439263: Review Request: javahelp2 - needed for NetBeans Platform Status: Closed Resolution: RAWHIDE |
| ./ide9/modules/ext/xerces-2.8.0.jar | xerces-j2-2.7.1-10jpp.1.fc9 The xerces-j2-2.8.0-1.fc is prepared as bootstrapped version of xerces-j2-2.8.0-1mdv2007.0.src.rpm
| Bugzilla Bug 456281: Review Request: xerces-j2 - Java XML parser |
| ./ide9/modules/ext/lucene-core-2.2.0.jar | lucene-2.3.0-1jpp.0.fc9 | EXISTS |
| ./ide9/modules/ext/resolver-1.2.jar It is patched version of the xml-commons-resolver-1.1, but not 1.2!
| xml-commons-resolver-1.1 The netbeans-resolver-6.1-1.fc package is prepared. It is using the same upstream source as xml-commons-resolver-1.1 and applies the required patch. The package doesn't establish any relations to the original XML resolver (e.g. via Provides tags, alternatives or by name of installed JAR)
| Bugzilla Bug 456298: Review Request: netbeans-resolver - Resolver subproject of xml-commons patched for NetBeans {{{1}}} Note: There is a patch provided by netbeans.org - see relevant files in mercurial: readme.txt and resolver.patch See also: Issue 127132 "SOA module installation broken" |
| ./ide9/modules/ext/freemarker-2.3.8.jar | freemarker-2.3.13-1.fc is prepared. Packaging Process
| Bugzilla Bug 456276: Review Request: freemarker - FreeMarker template engine Site: freemarker.sourceforge.net Origin: freemarker-2.3.8.tar.gz Note: There is the next compatible version 2.3.13 recommended as the latest stable release. See Download FreeMarker |

Sources
The netbeans-6.1-200805300101-src.zip file will be used as sources for packaging. This zip archive file contains all sources of the NetBeans.
There is another archive netbeans-6.1-200805300101-platform-src.zip that contains subset of sources with sources only the NetBeans Platform. This zip archive file can be used for packaging of the NetBeans Platform.
Extracting Sources
clusters.config.basic.list
| NB Cluster | Cluster Config |
|---|---|
| nb.cluster.harness | platform, basic |
| nb.cluster.platform | platform, basic |
| nb.cluster.ide | basic |
| nb.cluster.java | basic |
| nb.cluster.apisupport | basic |
| nb.cluster.nb | basic |
Refining sources
In the strict sense, there are bugs in both archives mentioned above, because these files contains pre-built binaries and libraries that are assumed as sources of the NetBeans. Actually, in many cases, the original sources for these pre-built binaries and libraries aren't accessible in the given NetBeans archives. To be compatible with the strict requirements established by fedoraproject.org the sources of the NetBeans should be refined before packaging.
Thenetbeans-6.1-200805300101-platform-src.zipincludes the following binary files:
