Hi, folks.
I recently set up JIST to use Maven:
http://telstech.org/jist/
One of JIST's dependencies is SISC and it would be nice if it were in
the Maven repository like so many other useful packages.
http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/
This page suggests that it's pretty easy to upload JARs for inclusion in
the repository:
http://maven.apache.org/repository-upload.html
One catch is that Maven only handles JAR dependencies and SISC requires
sisc.shp. I think this should be okay with the sisc-heap.jar built by
the "heap-jar" Ant target.
What I'm thinking is to follow those instructions and upload a
"sisc-1.8.8.jar" that merges sisc.jar, sisc-lib.jar, sisc-opt.jar and
sisc-heap.jar. What do you guys think?
Incidentally, it would be even easier to make (and maintain) the
repository submission if the project had a Maven POM. It could also
make the Debian package trivial using the deb plugin.
