@Rotonen they are too much framework, at least as far as I've seen
my needs are simple
still http is harder than one would superficially think
@Fireduck which part of snowblossom should one try to jam into robovm? supports gradle and maven out of the box trying to go for just adding a dependency and seeing if it compiles or not
right, I'm using the javax http server, which seems to work fine
I know I'm not handling a bunch of things like range requests yet
as for robovm, don't suppose there is any chance of swing UI stuff working?
Assuming there is no change of that, just running the SnowBlossomClient would be good
i was hoping to just try if there is something it cannot compile
then do a smoketest where it prints a new address on screen
yeah, that makes sense
after that, sure, can try this or that
i have an empty gradle project which can launch a white screen on ios
next step is to add something to the gradle definitions as a dependency so it would try to compile at least a part of snowblossom
as robovm is an ahead of time compiler, should work to show if you use something they don’t implement
got it. Does it compile from source java files or does it work from class files?
it can eat jars
Cool. You can give it the client deploy jar and then run snowblossom.client.VanityGen
presumably both class files and source code would be fine it prefers to skeleton out an intellij idea project and there are a few gradle build targets it provides (debug and production builds for simulators, real devices and a publication target)
for now goal 1 is debug in simulator
@Fireduck i’m a fish out of water in java packaging - what do i put into the gradle or maven file so it pulls a snowblossom jar from somewhere and tries to compile it?
ah, I understand the problem now
i can do gradle or maven based projects and i think bazel can wrap both
so can do snake eat tail in the end, but first gotta make the loop that way
i’d guess filesystem targets can also be a thing, but would need to learn the lingo first to be able to parse the specifications of either maven or gradle
conceptually on a high level both seem to do what one would expect
yeah, I am reading about it. The problem is maven local repositories don't expect just a jar, they expect a jar with a .pom file and in a certain location
I can't find a just use this jar and shut it option
exactly the wall i hit
bazel seems to be able to generate a pom
