Re: [Wonder-disc] building ERJars

[Ash M. <a2m...@ec...>]

Hi Anjo,

My mistake for adding the mail.jar to ERJars, and commiting it.  I was in
a rush to get something working, and it sounded like the best place for
third party jars.  I'll remove it tonight, and restore the framework to
it's original state.  Of course I know all the rules with CVS, so it's not
excusable.

A couple of comments:

Any reason why the version in ERJavaMail, is not in ERJars?  Wouldn't it
make more sense to have all third party jars in one place than spread
throughout frameworks?

As for putting jars in /Libary/WebObjects/Extensions, that defeats the
purpose of having dependencies from one source; and adds extra steps to
the deployment.  Why have ERJars at all if you do this.

Regards,

Ash Mishra
