Maven is a tricky beast... Basically, each folder with a pom.xml is a "project" and each project has a lifecycle. The lifecycle is something like -
clean compile test package install deploy There are quite a few more steps in there, but those are the biggies. You can attach "plugins" at any one of the lifecycle "phases" so that extra stuff happens at that phase. Without any configuration, maven is usually able to figure out what needs to be done, but any project other than the most basic requires at least a little bit of extra configuration (such as telling the compiler plugin to target 1.5 or above, since it defaults to 1.3). I haven't looked at that JIRA, but if you are having fits with getting unit tests to pass, you can tell maven to skip the unit testing by adding - `-Dmaven.test.skip=true` on the command line. Also, I have been using 2.2.1 lately and I think Musachy is using 2.0.10, so I'm pretty sure that we don't have any issues related to specific versions of maven, but I would never rule that out. There's your 30-second tutorial :), now what issues are you having? -Wes On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 8:58 AM, Security Management<list-subscripti...@secmgmt.com> wrote: > I would like to fix this today: > > https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-3210 > > I know how to fix it, but would like to submit a patch, etc. > > My problem is that I can't get struts2 to compile with maven, it's giving me > fits. > > I've looked at the tutorials, and still can't figure it out.
