Description Christopher G. Stach II 2005-06-11 20:52:55 UTC 
MX4J is _NOT_ dependent on Resin and it should _NOT_ pull in Resin.  It is dependent on Hessian.  Hessian does not seem to have an ebuild yet.  It is available from http://caucho.com/hessian/.

So do you need mx4j for something? I planned on moving it away from the official
tree because of the following reasons:

So do you need mx4j for something? I planned on moving it away from the official
tree because of the following reasons:

# Petteri Räty <betelgeuse@gentoo.org> (02 Oct 2005)
# Upstream is dead and does not compile against the latest swig.
# There are no packages using the library and there are better
# alternatives. Will be moved to java experimental if no-one steps up.

ignore betelgeuse, he's comfusing it with wx4j
Comment 4 Petteri Räty (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-10-20 13:36:50 UTC 
This appears to be already fixed in our experimental tree by one of our
developers in mentoring. Hopefully moved to official as soon as possible.

Petteri, mx4j is required for dev-util/cruisecontrol-2.2.1 (bug 50972)

Committed a new revision with fixed dependencies. Thanks for reporting.
