since a long time eXist-db provides a way to easily start the bundled Java-client: via webstart.\r\nWebstart however, require JAR files to be signed, which makes the eXist-db compile/build process a bit complex, and users often struggle with the signing.\r\n\r\nMy proposal is to do it a bit different for v5.0:\r\n- have an (optional) XAR file with the signed JAR files - [link](https://github.com/dizzzz/existdb-webstart)\r\n- remove the signing steps from the eXist-db build scripts (more easy migration to maven possible)\r\n- simplify the current JNLP/jar download - for OxygenXML compatibility we need -for now- to keep the HTTP connecter, only with a smaller set of UNSIGNED jar files - [details](https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/18/ug-author/tasks/configure-exist-datasource.html#configure-exist-datasource)\r\n\r\nnote that for efficiency purposes, the XAR file contains highly-efficient compressed and signed JAR files. for this PACK200 + Gzip is used. We need to add a unpack200 step for compatibility reasons.\r\n\r\nMy ambition is to have this change as part of eXist-db v5; most of the work is there already. When possible we could Mavenize this XAR project as well, not sure how complex this wil be @adamretter \r\n\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/eXist-db/exist/issues/comments/395680999","html_url":"https://github.com/eXist-db/exist/issues/1923#issuecomment-395680999","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/eXist-db/exist/issues/1923","id":395680999,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDM5NTY4MDk5OQ==","user":{"login":"duncdrum","id":6205362,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjYyMDUzNjI=","avatar_url":"https://avatars1.githubusercontent.com/u/6205362?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum","html_url":"https://github.com/duncdrum","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/duncdrum/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-06-08T07:57:15Z","updated_at":"2018-06-08T07:57:15Z","author_association":"MEMBER","body":"anything that reduces build complexity is a win in my book"}}
