This is a VOTE to release Commons Parent 29 from RC1 Changes in this version include:
Changes: o cobertura-maven-plugin 2.5.2 -> removed jacoco-maven-plugin -> 0.6.2.201302030002 maven-surefire-plugin 2.13 -> 2.14.1 maven-surefire-report-plugin 2.13 -> 2.14.1 maven-changes-plugin 2.8 -> 2.9 maven-compiler-plugin 3.0 -> 3.1 maven-release-plugin 2.3.2 -> 2.4.1 apache-rat-plugin 0.8 -> 0.9 The main change is the replacement of cobertura with JaCoCo for test coverage analysis. The former is not maintained anymore, has numerous bugs and is extremely slow in some situations (typically generating coverage reports for [math] took about 9 hours whereas standard tests run in about 10 minutes). One important implication is that since JaCoCo relies on setting an agent, it is triggered only if JDK used to run the tests is at least Java 1.5 (this is automatically detected), and it changes the argument line of surefire tests. If a component also needs to adapt the surefire command line, it must add the property ${argLine} to the argument line in order to preserve JaCoCo settings. An example for this is Apache Commons IO, where the maven-surefire-plugin setting must read as (note the use of the ${argLine} property): <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <forkMode>pertest</forkMode> <!-- limit memory size see IO-161 --> <!-- the ${argLine} preserves jacoco agent settings (see (see https://github.com/jacoco/jacoco/issues/44) --> <argLine>-Xmx25M ${argLine}</argLine> ... </configuration> </plugin> ... </plugins> This VOTE by LAZY-CONSENSUS is open for at least 72 hours, so it will be closed on 2013-05-16T08:00:00Z (that is UTC time). Since this is the parent pom, there are only maven artifacts and the subversion tag available: artifacts: <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-009/org/apache/commons/commons-parent/29/> tag: <https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/commons-parent/tags/commons-parent-29-RC1> Luc --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
