THDL's web design and menu system. At the design
protocols for the THDL web site are a bit messy, but
they are being cleaned up and hopefully will eventually
emerge in a way that makes them easier for non-THDL
staff like David C. to make sense of.

Jskad/extensions. If you're lazy, you can move them to
extensions/drop-ins, but the correct thing to do is to move x*.jar to
$ANT_HOME/lib [next to vamp.jar, if you're already set up for Java Web
Start builds]. This is a side effect of improving the nightly builds.
Nightly builds now feature an HTML summary of the JUnit test results,
a datestamp, and full API docs in two flavors.
If you use a patched vamp.jar [e-mail me] that can run when an X11
display is not available (there is not an analogous problem for
Windows servers, I suspect), all you have to do to put up a nightly
builds site is to set up CVS access so that no password is requires
using SSH public-key crypto (sf.net documents how to do so well) and
then use the following daily cron job on your Unix box:
#! /bin/sh
renice +19 -p $$ >/dev/null 2>&1
su -l joe-user /bin/sh -c /var/www/thdl/nightly/doTheBuild.sh
where joe-user is an unprivileged user who has installed Ant properly
(see the updated BuildSystems.html on the developer's site off of
thdltools.sf.net) and set himself up a Jskad sandbox with a Fonts
sandbox underneath it in, e.g., /var/www/thdl/nightly/Jskad. Here's
doTheBuild.sh:
#! /bin/sh
JSKAD=/var/www/thdl/nightly/Jskad
DEST=/var/www/thdl/nightly/builds
HISTORY=/var/www/thdl/nightly/history
DATE=`date`
if test ! -d $DEST; then \
echo "$DEST does not exist ($DATE)." >> history; exit 1; fi
(cd $JSKAD && ant dc-nightly-build \
&& rm -fr ${DEST}/* \
&& cp dist/nightlyBuild.zip $DEST \
&& cd $DEST \
&& unzip nightlyBuild.zip)
if test $? != 0; then echo "NIGHTLY BUILDS FAILED on $DATE" >> $HISTORY; exit 2; fi
DDDATE=`date`
echo "Success on start=$DATE end=$DDDATE" >> $HISTORY
exit 0
Besides the fact that I like unit tests, my Unicode conversion work is
going to have to be thorougly tested.
Other small improvements to the text were made.
be specified on the command line via
'ant -Djnlp.codebase="http://foo.bar/baz"'.
This means that dist/ no longer contains .jnlp files; they are created by Ant
instead.
