<div dir="ltr">Hi everyone,<div><br></div><div style>The ImageJ launcher has been split to its own Git repository:</div><div style><br></div><div style> <a href="https://github.com/imagej/imagej-launcher">https://github.com/imagej/imagej-launcher</a></div>
<div style><br></div><div style>The reasoning is two-fold:</div><div style><br></div><div style>1) The launcher is its own project with its own development cycle, supporting ImageJ1, Fiji and ImageJ2. So it should be versioned separately.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>2) The split makes it much simpler to build and release ImageJ2.</div><div style><br></div><div style>We have also released version 2.0.0 of the launcher [1]. It has been in use with Fiji for a long time now, and we are already committed to maintaining backwards compatibility, so unlike ImageJ2, there is no point to keeping it in beta.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Regards,<br></div><div style>Curtis</div><div style><br></div><div style><div>P.S. to Dscho: Updating the Jenkins jobs was mostly very straightforward, except for the ImageJ-launcher-deploy job. Your recent hack to discover the triggering Image-launcher build number by extracting it from the current build log did not work as we hoped: there was no match. At first I thought Jenkins was stripping out the backslashes within the sed expression, so I tried escaping the backslashes, which fixed the Jenkins console output but ultimately had the same result. So then I figured probably the log is not actually written to disk at that point. I installed the Parameterized Trigger plugin, added a buildNumber parameter to ImageJ-launcher-deploy, and passed ImageJ-launcher's $BUILD_NUMBER in via that parameter. It worked, and furthermore we now have the ability to manually execute ImageJ-launcher-deploy on any desired ImageJ-launcher build.</div>
<div><br></div><div style>P.P.S. to all: ImageJ 2.0.0-beta-7 will probably be out tomorrow, though announcements and blog posts may not be finished before Friday.</div><div><br></div><div>[1] <a href="http://maven.imagej.net/#nexus-search;gav~net.imagej~ij-launcher~2.0.0~~">http://maven.imagej.net/#nexus-search;gav~net.imagej~ij-launcher~2.0.0~~</a></div>
