#380 support multiple architectures for solver binaries z3 #395
Conversation
Not tested, not finished, just a draft.
… for backwards compatibility.
This should keep the existing cache valid and re-usable. Otherwise, we would create a new cache structure within the existing cache, with redundant entries. With this change, we limit the redundancy to arch- or classifier-specific entries.

This PR is currently blocked by sosy-lab/java-common-lib#43 to test execution on ARM64. // UPDATE: The wording "blocked" is too much. Z3 is still not available for ARM64 on Linux, so local development is not affected and we could merge this PR. |
We could include x64 and ARM64 dependencies for Z3. However, the default stays by only x64.
…rs, but only all other files. This cleanup aligns better with Maven guidelines. This is a small change for all upcoming publications to Maven and the Maven users.
…cture. Additionally, we upload Java sources and JavaDoc for z3 to the Maven repository. We need to test whether the uploaded files work as expected.

The current state seems to work as expected. I tested:
Z3 is already published in Maven and Ivy, and works well with JavaSMT 5.0.1. As I do not have an ARM-based Apple machine available, maybe @ThomasHaas and @hernanponcedeleon can test whether it works as expected. Thanks. |

If there is positive feedback, I will also publish Z3 in its latest version 4.13.2 to Ivy and Maven. The publication of Z3 is even more automated now than it was before. |

It seems to work on ARM-based Macs now. Good job :) |
This branch / pull request exists for tracking some steps towards supporting multiple architectures. I will use Z3 as example, because it was requested several times. Some explanation can be found in #380 .
I will not yet commit binaries to any public archive (Ivy or Maven) until we can make sure that the new approach is backwards-compatible (e.g. default architecture x86 can be used as before) and we have a maintainable code base (including scripts and documentation for publication and testing).
