Subject: [ATN] moving dbscripts location
Hello All,
During the work I am doing to clean up the build of upcoming 3.3, I am going
to move[1] dbscripts directory from:
backend/manager/dbscripts
to:
packaging/dbscripts
The packaging directory is a new directory established for files we copy
as-is to installation media, dbscripts was the last remaining directory of
that nature. dbscripts does not really belong to the java sources nor to
required for java project build (except few validation that were kept).
The packaging directory has the following advantages:
1. Simplify the build system to blindly copy files recursively from packaging
to installation media.
2. Do not copy unnecessary files as we copy today, example is pom.xml.
3. Allow easy split plain files within packaging directory to sub packages in
future.
4. Easier to understand the target system file layout by browsing the
packaging directory, no magic of renaming or on the fly creation.
5. A clear separation between the maven build and the packaging build.
Regards,
Alon Bar-Lev.
