Hi John, Thank you for your understanding ! I appreciate that jumping in and doing a re-org can be a bit unnerving ! I had similar experience with Ivy at first but have since used it in a few projects and it has really grown on me :) At the moment I am completing the UML - I did plan to check it in yesterday but ended up having a long night at work so will return to it today when I get home. At the moment as I am just considering design I have not implemented anything and I think that I will pinch liberally from what you have already done so that the ideas will fall into place. I will of course be more precise about what I mean by callback in the UML (I am also writing design notes too.) We can then review, amend and generally play around with the design until we are all happy with it. I'll post again as soon as I have everything ready - thanks for your patience. Regards, A. John Southerland <jo...@we...> schrieb: Alan, I must admit to at first just sitting here shaking my head wondering why we are going through all this, but it only took me four minutes to get ivy up and running with your new build.xml and I sort of like it. This is a growing experience for me, and I will sit back and wait to look at your UML stuff. I have to admit never having gone through a UML design before, I usually use the post-it note method of defining features and usage along with my trusty wall. One thing I did notice, after reading your email from earlier again, you want to use a callback mechanism rather than a registered class method? I believe registering a class can also be implemented as a callback method, by simply implementing the interface in a more broad class, just as is sometimes done in SWING, using an interface and registering it as we are allows us to leave the implementation up to the developer, and I prefer that to having just a callback method, which I do not personally enjoy. I am hoping you are using the UML design you are putting together to document how the system currently is, rather than changing the design at the first revision. Can you clarify what you meant by the callback method? I will copy and paste it here as I see you did not send it to the mailing list: "OK what I propose is that instead of the processor approach we adopt a callback design using a template method within the Proxy to do the high level stuff." That is what confuses me, let me download and install skype as I have never used it before either ;) Thanks, John -----Original Message----- From: wpg...@li...

Subject: [Wpg-proxy-development] project (re)structure All, I have made some reorganisation of the project structure (the old stuff is still under version control in case anyone thinks I've removed too much :) First off you will need to install ivy (http://incubator.apache.org/ivy/). Ivy is a neat depedency manager that retrieves JARs for you from the internet (which it stores in a local cache in your home directory, see ~/.ivy dir) and places copies into your project lib directory - this means that we need only cite which JARs are required (see ivy.xml) and it does the rest (its uses well-known public repositories to get the JARs for you.) Since the JARs are cached you can use ivy for all your other projects too without having to download again. See the website for further marketing fluff. I have added notes in README. To ensure Ant can work with Ivy you need to install Ivy after downloading it and add the ~/.ivy/jars/ivy.jar to your CLASSPATH. Then to see ivy at work update your wpg-proxy project and issue "ant libs" and your lib directory will be magically filled - note that you do not need to check in these JARs. BTW to add a new JAR just reconfigure ivy.xml and re-run the libs target. etc. The new build.xml contains the usual targets with "compile" (default) for our normal code and "test" for unit test classes etc. See ant -p for details. Just play around with the targets to see if I missed anything. I'll get back to the UML stuff now which is nearly ready and have this checked in tomorrow. Hope everything is understandable and the way we want things - just let me know if there are any issues.
