JzrLib

JzrLib is meant to be a library for accessing Bazaar repositories and/or branches from Java. In another words: it is meant to be a bridge between Bazaar and the Java platform.

The main goal of developing JzrLib is a Bazaar plugin for NetBeans I'm going to write.

There are some similar solutions of the problem JzrLib tries to solve. In particular, the Bazaar plugin for Eclipse is being developed. I have taken a look at its code, and I wasn't able to understand it. Perhaps it's because I'm a poor programmer, perhaps it's just the fact that I'm not familiar with Eclipse platform. Anyway I decided to write my own library in order to write the mentioned Bazaar plugin for NetBeans (my favourite IDE).

News

  • Yes, I'm alive. Aliens haven't taken me (at least not this time) ;) But more seriously: I've had a lot of work to do (including the work I do for living) and many problems of technical nature, so I wasn't able to work on JzrLib. I have been thinking about it, though. I came to some conclusions regarding JzrLib API.

Potential problems

There are many issues which must be solved:

  • Bazaar is in active development. Which version the JzrLib library should target? The latest one, or perhaps it should "update" every six months/weeks or so?

Download

At the moment only the development version is available for download. You can find more instructions here (Bazaar is required).
