Recommendation: Deploy OSP jar to Maven Central
Stuart Bowman
2 Posts

I love the idea of Open Source Physics and am glad it's been developed. I've started using it for ODE propagation in an inverted pendulum problem I'm working on (for fun). However, much of the Java development community has moved to Maven for project dependency management and I would really love to see OSP consider such a move. My GitHub repo uses Maven, but I have to do a little hacky work-around using hardcoded classpath stuff to also get OSP on my path. It would be much cleaner for many of us if the jars were deployed to Maven Central (at least occasionally). I'm happy to help if this is unclear or too big of an effort.

Since there was no response or discussion regarding this request, I did the first step myself. I forked the GitHub repo and maven-ized it.

Of course, I can't deploy it since I am not associated with OSP. I'd still love to see them do that. Let me know if I can be of help deploying to Maven Central.
