This is a work in progress.
The goal to aim for is a stand-alone mmcorej repository (initially a mirror of
MMCoreJ_wrap/) that is analogous to pymmcore, which publishes to the Maven Central repository.Major things remaining to do:
meson dist)pom.xmlwith version frommeson.build(probably not while MMCoreJ lives in mmCoreAndDevices)pom.xmlin jarThe Javadoc generation requires some thought. We currently use the ancient swig-doc-converter, which I'd like to retire. SWIG 4 can translate Doxygen to Javadoc, but (a) we still require SWIG 2/3 for MMCoreJ (#37) and (b) the doc comments of MMCore will need to be in the headers for that to work (#23 - probably best to do when no major PRs are outstanding on MMCore). Might be best to tackle those issues first.
