Ice jars with ivy/maven/gradle

Hi guys,

Sorry if I've just missed this. With the work you've been doing on the ant and gradle build system integration, I was wondering if the Ice jars are/will available from a service such as Maven Central (or an equivalent) so that a resolver such as ivy (or directly with maven or gradle) can fetch them on demand.


Thanks,
Roger

    Hi,

    We host a public maven repository at http://www.zeroc.com:8081/nexus/index.html
  • Thanks! I'll give this a try.

    Hi rleigh,

    The url for the nexus repository should be https://repo.zeroc.com/nexus. The other url will work but we're trying to move away from it.


    Cheers,
    Joe
  • Super, thanks. I can see all the artifacts for all the recent Ice releases in nexus. However, I can't see any reference to the "db-5.3.28" jar also installed with Ice, unless I'm just looking in the wrong places. Is that available in your nexus repo as well? Or is it available elsewhere--I'm having trouble finding it externally as well.

    Thanks again,
    Roger

    Hi rleigh,

    We can not provide a db-5.3.28 jar because it requires the corresponding C library, so you will have to install it separately.

    Which platform are you using?
  • Ah OK, that certainly makes sense. We're using a variety of different platforms (Linux, MacOS, Windows, some FreeBSD). I'll have to investigate our use of it further.
  • One (hopefully last!) question here.

    Looking at your releases in nexus, there aren't any freeze jars for Ice 3.5.1 and earlier (3.6b and 3.6.0 only, from what I can see). Is this by design, or is it planned to add them?

    Thanks again,
    Roger

    This was just an oversight, thanks for bringing it to our attention. The Freeze jars for 3.5.0 and 3.5.1 are now in the repository.
  • Thanks! Would it be possible to add the 3.4.2 version as well?

    The 3.4.2 Freeze jar is up as well now.
  • Many thanks, this is really much appreciated.
