Problems building LoadUI from source

I can't build according to the simple instructions given at:
http://www.loadui.org/Developers-Corner ... rview.html

There are some dependency problems with the loadui-fx-interface module as I checked out revision 4022 from your svn repo last night I think. First I got an error with the JavaFX install path. Seems you guys are on Windows:

- <systemPath>${env.JAVAFX_HOME}\lib\desktop\javafx-common.jar</systemPath>
+ <systemPath>${env.JAVAFX_HOME}/lib/desktop/javafx-common.jar</systemPath>

I could fix this, but then I have problems with the jide-commons as defined:

<dependency>
<groupId>jide</groupId>
<artifactId>jide-common</artifactId>
<version>2.9.6</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>



Can't be found:


[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project loadui-fx-interface: Missing:
----------
1) jide:jide-charts:jar:2.9.6

Try downloading the file manually from the project website.

Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=jide -DartifactId=jide-charts -Dversion=2.9.6 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file

Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=jide -DartifactId=jide-charts -Dversion=2.9.6 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]

Path to dependency:
1) com.eviware.loadui:loadui-fx-interface:pom:1.0
2) jide:jide-charts:jar:2.9.6

----------
1 required artifact is missing.

for artifact:
com.eviware.loadui:loadui-fx-interface:pom:1.0

from the specified remote repositories:
eviware (http://www.eviware.com/repository/maven2, releases=true, snapshots=true),
central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2, releases=true, snapshots=true),
java.net (http://download.java.net/maven/2, releases=true, snapshots=true),
com.springsource.repository.bundles.release (http://repository.springsource.com/mave ... es/release, releases=true, snapshots=true),
com.springsource.repository.bundles.external (http://repository.springsource.com/mave ... s/external, releases=true, snapshots=true)


Thankful for help.

Cool project by the way!

  • Hello,

    Some of the libraries used by loadUI (JIDE) are commercial, and I'm not entirely sure that we're allowed to host these JARs publically. You can manually download them from: http://www.jidesoft.com/products/charts.htm as an evaluation version, and those JARs can then be manually installed to your local Maven repository using the mvn install:install-file command that you pasted. I'll look into the issue of hosting the JARs ourselves to see if this can be done or not.

    The backslash issue has been fixed in the latest SVN code.
