[Cdk-user] 20MB for dist-large in SVN trunk/

[Egon W. <e.w...@sc...>]

Hi all,

a quick note to those users who use the Ant target 'dist-large' for CDK's 
build.xml from SVN trunk/.

You might have noted that the dist-large jar (cdk-svn-2006MMDD) recently 
became about 20MB large. This was caused by an empty configuration file in 
META-INF, causing all the .java files to be included in the jar too. The size 
is now back to a decent 11.5MB, which is including all third party libraries.

BTW, if you only need a specific feature from the CDK, you can customize 
this 'dist-large' target by commenting out (or remove) the lines for the CDK 
modules you do not need, *both* the <include> for the cdk-[module].jar and 
the <includesfiles> for ${metainf}/[module].libdepends a bit earlier.
For example, excluding the module 'build3d' will decrease the jar size 
considerably (due to the large template data file).

Egon
