Description

The PACK200 format was used for building the open-office add-in and the binary distribution. But PACK200 will be removed in future Java versions. We need to remove our use of it. This task impacts at least the following files:

• master:
  • application/pom.xml
  • application/sis-console/pom.xml
  • application/sis-console/src/main/artifact/README
  • application/sis-console/src/main/artifact/bin/sis
  • application/sis-openoffice/pom.xml
  • application/sis-openoffice/src/main/java/org/apache/sis/openoffice/Registration.java
  • core/sis-build-helper/src/main/java/org/apache/sis/internal/maven/*.java
• site:
  • content/build.mdtext

In addition, we should modify the sis-openoffice module for uncompressing sis-embedded-data.jar file. Since the JAR files are compressed in the sis.oxt file, it should not make a difference on the size of the distributed binary file. However it makes a big difference on the performance after sis.oxt registration: Derby is much faster in using embedded database if the JAR file is uncompressed.
