Can I test Lift 2.0-M2 with Scala 2.0 Beta 1 now?

Hi,

Question - Can I test Lift 2.0-M2 with Scala 2.0 Beta 1 now?

My environment is OSX 10.6, Java 1.6.0_17-b04-248-10M3025.

Project created using - mvn archetype:generate -U -
DarchetypeGroupId=net.liftweb -DarchetypeArtifactId=lift-archetype-
blank -DarchetypeVersion=2.0-M2 -DremoteRepositories=http://scala-
tools.org/repo-releases -DgroupId=demo.helloworld -
DartifactId=helloworld -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT

I tried creating a project using liftweb 2.0-M and I noticed that it
is still having a scala 2.7.7 dependency. I tried changing the Scala
compiler dependency to 2.8.0.Beta 1 and after issuing following maven
command - mvn clean jetty:run, I received the error below. After some
googling around, i gathered the error is the result of using scala 2.8
compiler.

[ERROR] error: error while loading MainGenericRunner, Scala signature
MainGenericRunner has wrong version
[INFO] expected: 4.1
[INFO] found: 5.0
[ERROR] one error found

I am hoping to do some explorations using Lift 2.0 + Scala 2.8 +
Eclipse 3.5.1.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards

Hello,

> Question - Can I test Lift 2.0-M2 with Scala 2.0 Beta 1 now?

you need to use code from the 280_port_refresh branch (http://github.com/dpp/liftweb).
The milestones are for 2.7.7 still.

Hi,
I believe the main branch is still built with scala 2.7.7 (as you
pointed out in your post). However there is a snapshot build for scala
2.8 named 2.0-scala280-SNAPSHOT.

mvn archetype:generate -U \
-DarchetypeGroupId=net.liftweb \
-DarchetypeArtifactId=lift-archetype-basic \
-DarchetypeVersion=2.0-scala280-SNAPSHOT \
-DarchetypeRepository=http://scala-tools.org/repo-snapshots \
-DremoteRepositories=http://scala-tools.org/repo-snapshots \
-DgroupId=$1 -DartifactId=$2

Please see the following discussion for more details:
