Does the ant build file already exist? If not, it wouldn't be too hard to create a maven assembly that "assembles" all the various dependencies and such into a directory (or uses something like the maven-ant-tasks to materialize them for the project later), and includes an ant build script/starter project code. I can add this to my list of things todo, however if someone else is interested and has time, I'm more than willing to help answer questions / point you in the correct maven direction.
I guess it would be ideal to make use of the current archetypes, but I don't even see this as necessary. An assembly for a zip/tgz file could be generated which includes a project-starter kit for ANT and could be deployed into the maven repository with all the other artifacts for a build. This could be downloaded from the maven repository then (and versioned, etc.). We actually use this at work for our "ubiquituous" install (we also have RPMs, etc. for installing our software). My question here, is why should the project be generated on the fly? Is that so you can have your desired package structure on startup? -Josh --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lift" group.
