Title: exscuse me please which way to be finding the source code?
Post by: SimDing0™ on July 19, 2006, 12:20:03 PM
Having arrived here (http://nearinfinity.cvs.sourceforge.net/nearinfinity/NearInfinity/NearInfinity/infinity/NearInfinity.java?view=log) in my exploration of the lovingly crafted SourceForge interface, I conclude that it might be easier to ask. :)

It's inside the .jar.

Fred should put up a separate source archive too.

Sim, excuse me, but what do you want with the SOURCE code?
You can download the jar from here (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=172428).

But i guess, you really wanted the source :)
You can get it from the cvs only file by file, which is not recommended.
Anyway, i guess with time they'll upload source tarballs too.

[edit]
actually, the source files are also in the .jar. It should be decompressed by anything that can eat .zip.
If you don't manage, rename the .jar to .zip.

Well, there are already two ways to get the source: download the jar file or checkout the module using CVS.  I'm a bit reluctant to add yet a third way.

Nobody wants the class files. Maybe the cvs port is blocked by the ISP/university? Maybe cvs doesn't work with Windows? All kinds of reasons for a standalone package (even if they're all false, I guess).

Hmm... I'll think about it.  It's really not that hard to clean out the class files, is it?  I suppose ideally the jar file would only contain the meta info, icons and class files and  a seperate "<package>-source.tar.gz" would contain the source code, makefile, icons, etc.  But that's quite a bit more headache to setup for such a small gain.
