If You Find a Bug or Problem

Please create a new issue in the JIRA issue tracker

Creating a JIRA Issue

  1. Register for a JIRA account
  2. Log in to the JIRA issue tracking system
  3. Visit the ServiceMix JIRA page and click the link named Create a new issue in project ServiceMix
  4. Fill in as much detail as possible
  5. Add a JUnit test if possible

If you can create a JUnit test case then your issue is more likely to be resolved quicker. The best way to start is to take a look at some of the existing unit tests as examples. Then we can commit your test case along with your patch to Subversion so that we'll know that the issue its really fixed and we can ensure that it stays fixed in future releases.

Submitting Patches

We gladly accept patches if you can find ways to improve, tune or fix ServiceMix in some way. To submit a patch, please use the following steps:

  1. Build against the trunk to ensure that your code compiles correctly and that your test runs
  2. Create a new JIRA issue that fully explains the situation, including the environments you've tested, the JVM version and vendor you're using and anything else that might be useful to know about the situation
  3. Attach the patch to the issue that you are creating and make sure to tick the 'Patch Attached' checkbox on the issue
  4. Send an email to the Mailing Lists or Discussion Forums to let people know you've filed an issue and contributed a patch for the issue
  5. Please try to also submit tests in the patch. Including tests makes applying the patch much easier and faster. Tests allow a patch to be applied and tested much quicker which results in your issue being fixed faster.

Creating the Patch

Most IDEs can create nice patches now very easily. If you're a command line person try the following to create the patch:

{info:title=Make Sure to Include All New Files in Your Patch}
If you're trying to include new files in your patch, make sure to do a {{svn add}} of those files before doing the diff. This will schedule the files for addition to the Subversion repository. Even if you don't have committer privileges you can do this. It will allow you to create a diff file that includes any new files you're contributing.
