Here's an ebuild for Jakarta Struts 1.1-rc1 (precompiled). Written from
scratch. It has
conditional dependencies for jdbc drivers, depending on what database the user
has
indicated with USE flags. It extracts documentation from a .war file and
installs it locally
as static html (user can still deploy it as a live webapp; ebuild gives user
pointers on
this). Postinst message gives pointer to gotcha regarding buildtime vs runtime
classpath; Install puts a warning into class description in package.env.
Postinst also
gives pointers to doc file explaining how to start a struts-based webapp
project.
Reproducible: Always

ebuild file
Suggest "net-www/struts" for ebuild name.
Do I need to submit a file for the MD5 sum and a MANIFEST file as well, or is
this something the committer does (for security/sanity check, perhaps)? This is
my first ebuild and I don't recall seeing this mentioned in the HOW-TO or other
docs.
Created an attachment (id=12567) [details]
corrected ebuild file
Corrected some local paths printed in the postinst messages.
Question: should struts be slotted? Users might have a codebase or (possibly
commercial) tools depending on a certain version, but also want to experiment
with the new version.
In portage now as a bare minimum build. I'd like to take sugesstions on how to
improve it (possibly with a tomcat use flag for the webapps...)
You might want to put it in
a. SLOT="1.1" and
b. have another struts-1.0.
