Comment on Re-visiting Spring, Ivy and Maven – copy and paste configs by Matt

Hi Alex,

You’re correct. They are not intentional errors, it just seems the source code formatting plugin I use with wordpress screws it up everytime I save the post! I’ll see if I can find a better formatting plugin which doesn’t do this. In short the extra tags shouldn’t be there and the correct root element is .

> Can you explain a bit more about what you mean by “setting up my IvyDE classpath container to use the new ivy-settings.xml file ”

By default IvyDE doesn’t know which ivy-settings.xml file to use, so it will use the default resolution mechanism (I think this is just the ibiblio resolver). We want it to use the custom one we’ve written which points to the jboss and springsource ivy repositories, so we need to tell it where this file lives. We can use the path “project:///ivy-settings.xml” to tell IvyDE to use the ivy-settings.xml in the root of the current eclipse project. That way you can always keep the ivy-settings.xml with your project code so anyone else who imports it will pick up the same resolvers and should be able to get the exact same dependencies as you. Note, it’s also worth checking in .project and .classpath files too if you change this so people can re-import the whole eclipse project and jump straight into coding without having to figure out who configured everything, but that’s a little off topic.

HTH,
Matt

Your ivy.xml has typos, right?
Why the close dependency tags?

runtime” />

———-

Is the outermost tag “ivy” or “ivy-module” ?

Can you explain a bit more about what you mean by “setting up my IvyDE classpath container to use the new ivy-settings.xml file ”

Thanks!

Comment on Sencha touch, YQL and BBC essential mix by David

Hi Matt,
I am the business manager of a medium size charity, rescuing 100′s of
stateless children from hunger, danger and being hunted for sex slavery in
the Mekong Highlands area.

I am going to design our web site using the “Sencha Ext Designer”
software to help streamline communication and building of the web
site. I am not a programmer!
I need a programmer/developer to do the Business Logic and Behavior of the site
after the design is finished.

Is there anyone interested in this type of challenge?
Is there any CMS and/or Shopping Cart built using the Sencha system?

Sincerely David

Really nicely put together, was doing some research on ScriptTagProxy and it’s nice to see who you applied your personal hobbies to work technologies. Inspiring!
Good deal!

Any chance I could get copies of those FakeID remixes? I lost my copies, and can’t seem to find them on the net anymore…

Hey there. Over the years, i’ve lost my copies of DJ FakeID’s remixes, and they’ve disappeared from the net, it would seem… I see that you listened to them recently. Any chance I can snag copies of them from you?

It’s amazing how much time this seemingly simple task kills, every single time you have to set up a new project.

Thanks so much for sharing this!

Comment on A bit more progress on the itunes themed UI by Matt

HI Josh. Sure, I’d be happy to add you as a contributer. I was also thinking about the same thing myself using the local storage api’s. I’ve set you up as a project commiter here: http://code.google.com/p/subtunes/
Feel free to check out the code (which I admit needs a bit of a clean up and some docs) and have a play.

Matt-
I like where you are starting to go with this and was wondering if I could be added as a contributor on the project, well if you want any help on it. I have some ideas for making it store in the browsers database for faster querying against along with a few other tweaks that might make it faster.
