Launchpad itself

More as one bazaar repository?

Asked by Hartmut Schorrig

I have registered a new project, https://launchpad.net/java2c The downloads of that are known on http://sourceforge.net/projects/java2c/ but there are no sources. For the sources I need more as one bazaar repository, one for the Java-sources of the translator, another for the CRuntimeJavalike base library. The adequate content of that is hosted in mercurial on https://bitbucket.org/jchartmut/cruntimejavalike I have a local bazaar repository already. This is the second one. A third repository for examples may proper to have. The different repositories may help a user which want to use only the versions of CRuntimeJavalike or another user which is interested on the translator sources-code.

Should I create three projects? But this projects are related. It may be fine to have a https://launchpad.net/java2c/translator, a https://launchpad.net/java2c/Jc (for CRuntimeJavalike) and a https://launchpad.net/java2c/examples.

2.question: Is there a wiki possible on https://launchpad.net/java2c, where any (registered) users can write into?

I think you want one project, but you have not setup all the Launchpad application. Launchpad's code importer allows only one import, from an upstream source, so there can be only one project. Translations are based on a single source, so all translations share the project.

1.a. Visit https://launchpad.net/java2c and choose "Configure project branch".
    (or visit the series https://launchpad.net/java2c/trunk and choose configure series branch)
    HOWEVER: I do not think the upstream maintainer is using version control.
    There is nothing in the ancient cvs repo to import
    You can unpack the source code; run `bzr init-reposoitory .` in the directory
    then follow the instructions on https://launchpad.net/java2c/trunk
1.b Visit https://launchpad.net/java2c and choost "Configure translations"
    You want to enable it. If the source code has a po/ directory, you can setup
    an automatic import and export of translations to the source code.

2. Launchpad does not have a wiki

I think you *do* want multiple projects here, because Launchpad is structured around the idea of a project having one codebase. So, you'd want want project for the java2c program and another for the cruntimejavalike runtime library.

That is correct. I will divide my work in separated bazaar repositories, which are related together, but any of them can be understand and used independently too.
