Running 'mvn package' from [dspace-src]/dspace/ will *ONLY* re-apply any Maven Overlays (i.e. ONLY rebuilds code in [dspace-src]/dspace/modules/). This is a "Quick Build" option which doesn't require you to rebuild *all* of DSpace. So, if you put your web.xml changes in a file named [dspace-src]/dspace/modules/jspui/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml then it will be "overlayed" properly in the final result. 2. Alternatively, running 'mvn package' from [dspace-src] (parent directory) will do a full rebuild of *all* DSpace code (takes a bit longer as it rebuilds all sub-directories of [dspace-src] one-by-one). So, this is what you'd want to run to rebuild the entire [dspace-src]/dspace-jspui/ directory. It should be noted that we recommend using Maven Overlays when you can (i.e. put your customizations under [dspace-src]/dspace/modules/). It helps keep your changes separate from the core DSpace code. More information at: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC18/Advanced+Customisation > > 2. The target area layout seems to be different from 170 to 182. Why? > In actuality, the main thing that has changed here is the DSpace version number. Look closely below and you'll see that nearly all the directories are identical except that paths containing "1.7.0" now contain "1.8.2". Also, it's worth noting that most of these various target directories can be ignored (it's just Maven doing it's own backend processing). The only target directory that really matters is: [dspace-src]/target/dspace-[version]-build/.. That directory contains the build of your DSpace (with all Maven overlays applied). All other 'target' directories are just generated by Maven while Maven is attempting to assemble DSpace into [dspace-src]/target. > In 170: > ./dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-webapp/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml > ./dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-webapp/target/dspace-jspui-webapp-1.7.0/WE > B-INF/web.xml > ./dspace/modules/jspui/target/war/work/org.dspace/dspace-jspui-webapp/ > WEB-INF/web.xml > ./dspace/modules/jspui/target/jspui-1.7.0/WEB-INF/web.xml > ./dspace/target/dspace-1.7.0-build.dir/webapps/jspui/WEB-INF/web.xml > > > In 182: > ./dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-webapp/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml > ./dspace/modules/jspui/target/war/work/org.dspace/dspace-jspui-webapp/ > WEB-INF/web.xml > ./dspace/modules/jspui/target/jspui-1.8.2/WEB-INF/web.xml > ./dspace/target/dspace-1.8.2-build/webapps/jspui/WEB-INF/web.xml Hopefully that helps! - Tim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech
