[ease-dev] Jupyter Kernels dependencies

[Martin Kloesch <martin.kloesch@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am currently working on fixing the dependencies for the Jupyter kernels.

I followed Christian's great tutorial on target definitions [1] and managed to get most libraries into the target platform.
Most of the dependencies can be found on Orbit [2] and are working great, but two libraries are giving me troubles:

• Apache's common codecs library has a too old version and I cannot use it...
• The ZeroMQ libraries are not available at all...

I might be able to get the commons.codec stuff to work with refactoring, but the ZeroMQ part is essential and I cannot do without it.
Currently I checked in the library in a "lib" folder and patch the projects classpath from the manifest. This is working, but might not be the optimal solution.

How do you suggest I should handle these two dependencies?

Best regards,
Martin
