I have encountered an issue with Apache BVal and have fixed it in the source code. How do I get the changes into svn?
- Create a JIRA issue
that describes the changes you've made (you'll need an Apache JIRA account
to do this).
- Check out the source code and make your changes.
- Create test cases to validate your changes.
svn add any new files.- Run
mvn test -Dtest=[MyTestCase] to validate your change. You need
to specify the test to run by its simple name without package name.
- Run the an entire build with tests by running
mvn clean install
for any possible regression. This should take 2-5 minutes or so.
- Check out the Found a Bug
page for more details on creating and submitting patches.
- Wait for a committer to review and check in your changes.
