[MKSearch-dev] Week 46 & 47 round up

[Phil Shaw]

Making progress with the build for FC4. I fixed the compilation of 
the CVS version of JTidy in its own right, but that now requires an 
upgrade to the GNU JAXP 1.3 release. There are several native 
JAXP classes that need to be excluded for our purposes and many 
tricky co-dependencies amongst the packages, so I have had to 
pick through and re-write the bash build scripts. Not complete, so 
do not re-try for now.

Best regards,

Phil

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Added a -p flag to the mkdir call in the JAXP compilation script to 
create any necessary parents, solves the problem Chris reported. 
Downloaded and imported the latest JTidy CVS source into the 
project. Adapted Ant build to compile with Windows Sun JDK.

Checked in HtmlAndRdfMimeTypeOnlyRule to allow parsing of 
RDF/RSS content. Added a debugging comment to 
RdfStoreWriterPlugin to debug test crawls using a new RDF 
indexer configuration for JSpider.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Added an explicit Latin 1 encoding argument to the JTidy 
compilation script, solves the problem Chris reported. Imported the 
GNU JAXP 1.3 release to the project and reworked the compilation 
script. This version has a number of awkward new co-dependencies 
amongst the packages, but ultimately got compilation to complete 
using Cygwin GCJ 3.4.4.

Added a source distribution target to the Ant build file, and usage 
notes to the copy filter files. The Ant JAXP build now fails on 
Windows using the Sun JDK 1.4, probably because of a conflict 
with its own JAXP implementation.
