Description: Helper scripts for packaging Java programs
Javahelper contains several scripts which help in packaging
Java programs.
.
jh_depends searches jars to find which packages they depend on,
similar to dh_shlibdeps. It will also add depends on jarwrapper
for packages with executable jars.
.
jh_classpath will register the classpath dependencies for each
jar so that they can be automatically loaded when that jar is
used by other programs.
.
jh_manifest updates the manifest in jar files according to
a provided spec so that the resultant jar files will work with
jarwrapper-enabled packages.
.
jh_exec looks for symlinks to jars which should be executable
and makes them executable
.
jh_build builds java files to jars for you.
.
jh_installlibs installs library jars into the correct locations
.
jh_makepkg generates a template for a Debian Java package for you
.
jh_installeclipse installs features/plugins built by pde-build.
.
jh_setupenvironment prepares an out of source built for eclipse builds.
.
jh_generateorbitdir creates and populates an orbit dir for eclipse
builds.
.
jh_compilefeatures compiles eclipse features based on feature ids.
.
/usr/share/javahelper/java-vars.mk provides a selection of useful
variables such as various JVM paths and the JVM name for the architecture
.
/usr/share/javahelper/java-arch.sh converts Debian architecture
names into java names to locate libjvm.so in non-make build systems
.
javahelper provides CDBS and dh macros so that it can be used with those
package build systems.
.
Note that some of the eclipse helpers depends on packages not pulled
by default (like with devscripts). You can find these scripts in
Suggests.
