Re: A couple of application deployment questions

First, we're making a home-user sort of application.  Ideally, we want
os-native executables to be launching this app.  We can generate the

Using a custom goal you will write in the maven.xml that will call you 
ant task to complete do the trick.



Second, and as a consequence of that, we want to create cross-platform
installers that will perform a seamless installation of our
application, along with its dependencies.  To this end, we need some
way of toting all of our dependencies with us in the distribution jar
file, or something equivalent.
 

Check out what the uber-dist plugin offers. This guy lets you build a 
custom distribution then zip (tar/gzip) it. It offers also ways to copy 
dependencies in custom publish directories. You can find the plugin and 
its doc at: http://uber-dist.sourceforge.net/

Re: [m2] Excluding dependencies from the runtime classpath

[Eric Giguere]

Hello guys
I would have a suggestion concerning this.
Right now, my uber-dist plugin allows that. In fact, its implemented the 
other way around. You specify using dependencies properties if this 
dependency must be deployed or not. If it is, you can override the 
deployment directory (so that it can be put in a sub-directory) and 
using another property, you can override its deployment name.


The use case...
When we have a project that is deployed on an existing framework, 
usually, your project will need the framework libraries to compile, but 
of course, you won't have to deploy those libraries since they are 
usually part of the framework uppon which your services will get 
installed. The frameword installation program takes care of putting all 
necessary files where they belong, and it will also (most of the time) 
indicate exactly where you must put your own libraries that extends its 
functionnalities.


There must be other situations but this one describes in the first place 
why I needed the new plugin.


Cheers!
Eric.

What's your specific use case? Does it happen to be a case where a

We're trying to collect these use cases now as we're doing design and
implementing in this phase of development i.e. for the alpha-3 release.

Re: Disable Automatic Plugin Updates in Maven ? + Config management question in [m2]

[Eric Giguere]

Hey guys!
How convenient... I just wanted to ask a question for Maven 2.0 
concerning this topic: configuration management.

It's not only a matter of corporate procedures. but rather a general 
configuration mangement issue. When you release a software product, if 
you want to have a reproducible build, you must save the complete 
configuration and that includes you build system. With standard IDEs or 
languages like C or C++, its pretty straight forward. You save the 
compiler's version and options you used, same thing with all external 
libraries. You may have to check in also the compiler itself or any 
other tool you require to build your system, you tag all your sources 
and you're almost done.

With Maven, its may be a little more complicated. Not only the engine 
itself is evoluting but all plugins are constantly changing to. I myself 
wrote a plugin and I know that if I checkout an old version of my 
project (lets say one from last year), I will have to modify the build 
script that was savec in CVS because there is something missing that is 
now required by new version of the plugin. In other words, what was 
building without problems a year agon with Maven 1.0 and some plugins 
won't build today.

So here is the question: Was that thought of in Maven 2.0? Will it be 
possible to "save" the configuration used to build and dig it out when 
its needed? Without going in the very specific details, I think that if 
we can tell maven to use a specific version of a plugin even if newer 
versions are available and installed, it'll fix most config. management 
issues.

A specialize maven plugin could do that save and load config, as long as 
the core engine accepts "overrides" on which plugin version to use 
instead of always picking up the latest.

thx!
Eric.

Yes (I think this was in my response to Jamie, but the mail has been
slow arriving, so not sure if you got it). You can put the plugin
versions in your POM to ensure it always behaves the same. The release
plugin will help you populate them at the point you cut a release.

Re: Need advice on deploying compoent software

[Eric Giguere]

Hello
How did you build your Maven project for it? Do you have 5 projects (one 
per component) or 1 project that does it all?

There is no universal way of deploying a multi-component system. It all 
depends first if these components can be deployed stand-alone or not. If 
not, I fail to see why they should be packaged seperately.

I play with a pretty large project at work, based on a commercial 
framework over which we add new services. The services, even if they can 
be seen as "components" since we can add or remove them even without 
restarting the system, are all part of THE big project, no sub-projects 
for them and not deployed packages. Its been in production for nearly 2 
years now and never did we upgraded only a single service as a 
"component upgrade" Each time, marketing and product management and ISO 
isssues lead us to issue either minor upgrades (when we add new 
functionalities) or patches if we correct major bugs.

In another project, we patch some of the framework jars with some 
internal fixes. These are built and published with a different maven 
project and part of our internal library repository.

Along with this, we also have some minor utilities to perform specific 
jobs. For that kind of project, I use 1 maven project per "component". 
These projects do depends on some jars of the big one and since we 
didn't feel it was necessary to publish all the system's jars (over 
100!) as libraries, I've build the maven projects for those as 
sub-projects of the master maven project. Doing this allowed me that 
have access to the master project's sources and share the target 
directory so that when we compile the big one, the small ones could use 
the same class files thus speeding up the build. The packaging and 
deployement is seperate for all projects though.

If you have a distribution that goes beyond what the dist plugin offers, 
I suggest you take a look at the distribution plugin I wrote. You can 
find it on Source Forge, its called uber dist : 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/uber-dist
Just updated the plugin today :).

Hope it helps
Eric.

I know this could be a huge topic, but I have to start somewhere and I
suspect that this issue is common for maven users.
We've successfully migrated a project from Ant to Maven. In the process
we've broken a large application into 5 components. Currently we deploy
and install the entire thing as one entity using InstallShield. All the
jar files go under one application directory. Upgrading to the next
release means creating another application directory and adjusting a
symbolic link to point to it.
In the past if we needed to make a patch we'd create (by hand) a
patch.jar that had the changes and placed it at the front of the
classpath. I'd like to get away from this. Instead I'd like to just
release a new version of the changed component. The question is how
should my production environment be setup to make this easy/possible?

Re: Generate manifest classpath entry?

[Eric Giguere]

Yes it is
Take a look at the jar plugin properties:
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/jar/properties.html
In short, you must set the property:
maven.jar.manifest.classpath.add=true
And in your project.xml, in each dependency, add the following property:
   
   true
   
That should do the trick.
Hope it helps.

You have to modify the navigation.jelly file from the plugin-resources

course, this addition will affect every project you have since the

Re: OS-conditional report generation

[Eric Giguere]

Hey Alex!
Ok, I lead you in the wrong direction, well, partially.
The tag cannot be used by itself :(, was not designed after all to be 
used like this. The problem is that the pom object is the one holding 
the list of reports to be genrated and then based on this list, the 
registers are called.

Made it work a little differently :).
Take a look:
In project.xml:
 (or nothing at all is ok too tried it and it works).
In your maven.xml
   
   
   
   
  

This works perfectly here with Maven 1.0. I guess it also will with 
other more recent version.

Re: is there a way to force maven to always download a dependency?

[Eric Giguere]

Hi Thomas.
Ah, got the wrong guy ;)
I'm not a "Maven way" zealot.. I create and modify plugins so that maven 
fits my needs and not the other way around. Maven is an 
integration/building tool, (and a great one)  not a religion.. not for 
me anyway. I have no problems at all twisting it and making it more 
adapted to "real life" (pronounce: 
typical-not-so-organized-company-produced-software-projects...) projects.

Take a look at my plugin then: named uber-dist. It resides on 
sourceforge. Maybe it can help you. This guy introduced properties for 
dependency for automatic dependency publishing with renaming 
capabilities (to eliminate the version for instance).
I am a team leader in a company that didn't have any clue about maven 
before me. I did though versionned the jars when I migrated the project 
from Ant to Maven. It was a little pain at the beginning but now, we 
rely on the central repository and the team never messes up now since 
all is driven though the project.xml. Our main project is not at all the 
perfect Maven project template. The main project builds I don't know how 
many artifacts, I have multiple sub-projects that uses the parent's 
sources as well as the parent's target. But everything works just 
perfectly now. Most of those projects were alive before Maven came in.

Here, take a look, an example on an "extended" dependency definition we 
use with the plugin:
   
   commons-digester
   commons-digester
   1.5
   http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/digester/
   
   true
   
lib/3rdparty/catalina
   
commons-digester.jar
   
   
   

With these, you can deploy, in the subdirectory you want and the jar 
gets renamed. But, in terms of configuration management, you always know 
what exact version you need by looking at project.xml... not at the 
actual distribution since nearly all the jars gets renamed. Legacy stuff...

GLuck with your project then
Eric.

Re: Download jars (newbie)

[Eric Giguere]

Hi there
Not that I know of but if you tried to run site:generate with all known 
reports generated in your project, you will get a lot of jars that could 
suite your needs for many project types.

Hope it helps
Eric.

Re: Adding to the classpath

[Eric Giguere]

Hi
No, and yes, explanations. No, you cannot add anything in the classpath 
of java:compile goal unless its a dependency declared in the project.xml 
and it does not support directories. But I have a solution that involved 
modifying (a single line) in the java plugin.

If you are not afraid of producing your own plugin (very easy believe 
me), here is the diff between version  maven-java-plugin 1.5 (official)  
and 1.5.1 (my custom version of java plugin):

RCS file: 
/home/cvs/cvsroot/utilities/maven-plugins/maven-java-plugin/plugin.jelly,v
retrieving revision 1.1
retrieving revision 1.2
diff -w -b -i -r1.1 -r1.2
100a101
> 

So basically, in the java:compile goal, you add this new element in the 
 element of the 
   
  
 
   
   
there it is-->
 
  ...
   

Then set this property to your directory and you're done.
I've proposed this way of solving and also creating a new dependency 
type: directory! But no news whatsoever and by looking at the original 
java plugin code, you'll se that there is absolutely no other way to add 
an entry in the cp.

Hope it helps
Eric.

Re: classpath in manifest file

Hi
You also need to add an attribute in each dependency you want to see in 
your class-path entry in the jar:
Here's an exemple:

   
   log4j
   log4j
   1.1.3
   
   true

Re: calling multiproject:goal launches default goal instead

[Eric Giguere]

Hi Randy
Yes, got an idea. I have personnaly been playing with the multiproject 
plugin and got tired of trying to control it from a maven script.

If you want to do that kind of processing, you better call the reactor 
yourself instead of going through the multiproject. From what I 
understand of this plugin, its just a facade in front of the reactor. It 
offers a couple of predefined goal to launch plus the capability of 
specifying one on the command line. But, as far as I know, we cannot 
pass parameters to a goal we call. So, the be sure to have to right goal 
called, in your maven xml, insert a reactor tag and from there call the 
goal you want.

Building the project list is very easy with the reactor tag, you have 
the includes and excludes property that allows full control on 
sub-projects filtering.

Take a look there : 
http://maven.apache.org/reference/maven-jelly-tags/tags.html#maven:reactor

Hope it helps
Eric.

Classpath issue

[Eric Giguere]

Hi all
I have a small issue. I'm building some Eclipse plugins but the PDE 
environment build fails so I'm now writing a maven to fix the problem. 
To acheive the build, I need to reference some external directories in 
the classpath when I compile. Is there a way to do this using jelly code 
in a maven.xml?

I manage to make this work by making a small change in the java plugin 
to support this, added a property that becomes a path element so we can 
add paths to the cp of the java compiler but if its not already in 
there.. it must be for a reason.

But, by checking the jelly/java code of the plugin and from maven, it 
occured to me that this could be resolved by defining a new type of 
dependency, a path dependency. Does this make sense? If not, what would 
be the more maven-friendly way to go in those cases? Of course the 
classes could be  packaged in a jar (they are in fact later on but 
inside another jar...) but since the jar holding the code is not the 
deliverable, it seems way overkill to jar it, deploy it so that it could 
be refered as a dependency.

In some other projects, I've combine the target/classes directory to 
overcome but in this perticular case, I cannot use this approach.

Any suggestions / comments?
Eric.

Re: Create 2 jars for a project

[Eric Giguere]

Yes, I gues it can be done if you program this accordingly with a flag.
But instead of doing this and having to cope with some maybe unwanted 
behavior from calling jar:jar twice and trying to "fool" the plugin, you 
could take the jelly code in the jar plugin and use it directly in your 
project?

You know what, maybe my approach I took with the legacy project could 
fit you more.
Create a master project that is "responsible" for compiling all you 
sources. Then, pass control to 2 sub-projects that will take care of 
producing the jars on the classes build by the master project. It 
involves setting this in the sub-projects:

parent.base.dir=${basedir}/../..<-- depends on where you put you 
sub-project

#
# maven default source directory override to get parent's instead
#
maven.build.dir=${parent.base.dir}/target
maven.src.dir=${parent.base.dir}/src/java
With this, all projects will use the same sources and same classes. So 
your master compiles, sub-projects jar using all maven built in mechanism.

What do you think?
Eric.

Sure it is, but not wihout some extra jelly code.
Do it with the Ant Jar tag in your maven.xml or you can make one project 
as a subproject of the other using the reactor component.
But be aware that if you do, you will "loose" the maven.artifact. The 
artifact of a maven project is, by default, unique. A single jar.

We have a project here that builds over 30 jars and its not really an 
issue. The product we build is not a simple artifact anyway so nowhere 
in our build is the "unique artifact" refered.

Hope it helps.

Re: Create 2 jars for a project

[Eric Giguere]

Sure it is, but not wihout some extra jelly code.
Do it with the Ant Jar tag in your maven.xml or you can make one project 
as a subproject of the other using the reactor component.
But be aware that if you do, you will "loose" the maven.artifact. The 
artifact of a maven project is, by default, unique. A single jar.

We have a project here that builds over 30 jars and its not really an 
issue. The product we build is not a simple artifact anyway so nowhere 
in our build is the "unique artifact" refered.

Hope it helps.

Re: Put 30 legacy jars in a Maven repository?

[Eric Giguere]

Hi
I also had to cope with the same number of "foreign" jars and a legacy 
Ant script to build everything.
In my case, there was also a number of "known" jars like log4j, 
commons-beanutils and other like that but unknown version.

Instead of having them all under an "internal" group id, this is what I did:
1- try to find what is the real verison of the jar if its a known one 
(like log4j for instace, was part of it) and rename then with the right 
version in the name. The manifest file in the jar can be helpfull.
2- for those of unknown source and/or version, deploy them on your 
internal repository and give them whatever version number you feel 
giving it.
3- for those that we build, I'm still using the Ant code initially 
written but its part of a single maven project. I use the "main" project 
version that I then use to produce the jars. These jars and then 
deployed on the local repository. The original Ant code was copied in 
the maven.xml and some jelly code was added to rename jars using maven 
supplied version number.

Its definitely overkill to produce a maven project for them all IMHO.
Hope it helps
Eric.

I would rather not create 30 maven subproject directories with POMs in them.

Re: building a complex file hierarchy

[Eric Giguere]

Hello guys
I've created a plugin to handle building complex distributions. I called 
it uber-dist.
My setup on source forge is almost complete. I'll send a message in the 
list as the download is ready.

In a nutshell, my plugin calls a goal you write in your maven.xml file. 
It also offers a couple of automatic features including deployment of 
dependencies with name override (to get rid of version numbers for 
instance), deploy directory override, launch script copy with filtering, 
etc.  But in the end, if you don't produce the standard maven artifact, 
you will have to write some Ant / jelly code in maven.xml but, at least, 
you'll be doing it in a maven friendly approach.

The project from which I've created this plugin for in the first place 
holds many hundreds lines of Ant code and creates a lot of artifacts. 
First phase was to make the Ant code callable in a maven project... 
embed the Ant calls in a maven.xml and phase 2 was to get rid of useless 
Ant code (like calls to javac for instance) To be more like a "real" 
maven project.

Based on this architecture, I've created the plugin that build, under 
target, completely new distribution "file-system" that gets tarred 
and/or zipped.

Later!
Eric.

Re: deploy custom artifact's type

[Eric Giguere]

Hi Stéphane
I've develop a completely new distribution plugin that I called 
uber-dist. Its goal is to allow maven users to build "complex" 
distributions. At work here, we build a server application based on a 
commercial framework. Distribution mechanism currently in maven are not 
suited for that kind of project...well...not for its deployment anyway.

The new distribution plugin works more or less like the xdoc plugin, 
that is based on a registration. You project must register with the 
plugin and then the plugin will call a custom goal that you write in 
your project to perform all imaginable operations required to build your 
distribution.

I will maybe submit this plugin through someday, to source-forge or 
somewhere else but if you (or anybody that is) are interested, I can 
send it directly to you and you can play with it.

Regards,
Eric.

Re: where is default.properties?

[Eric Giguere]

Hello
You have to create a build.properties files that you put in your home 
directory (/home/whatever under unix, Document And Settings/whatever under
Window$).
That will become the default for you only but for ALL your Maven projects.
Otherwise, if you want to share a common set of properties for a 
specific project and between all project members, you create a 
project.properties file and put it in the basedir of your project.

This process is described in details in the Maven User guide available 
online on maven home site.

Hope it helps.

Re: Change config file content using maven plugin

[Eric Giguere]

Hi
The Ant copy tag can be used with its built in filtering mechanism. You 
put in tokens that get replaced by values you specify in tag itself.
When this is done in a maven.xml file, you can vitually replace these 
tokens with anything, including artifact ids, complete jar names version 
included you can get out of the project dependencies and etc.

Here is an example.
   
   
   
   
   
   
  

By defaut, tokens in the files must be enclosed in @ characters (ex. 
@batchfile-artifact@ that will get replaced by the maven.final.name value)

Hope it helps

Re: Maven - specify SSH password

[Eric Giguere]

Hi
Presented this way, no, its not.
But, to get around this, we're using here ssh-rsa keys (ssh2). From the 
client computer (deployment platform), you supply you private key to 
some ssh agent. On the server, you add your key footprint in the 
authorized_keys file. Using this scheme, you can log to the remote 
computer only by supplying the username.

Maven may have to be configured on the deployment machine, depending on 
the OS. The default ssh client used is ssh. On M$ Win plateforms, you 
may have to specify another client to be used link plink that comes with 
the Putty package.

Hope it helps.

No matter how I play with directories (using the propeties), I never

Is there a way to do so without copying them "by hand" in the

deploying plugin jars

[Eric Giguere]

Hi
Got a small problem. I'm trying to deploy a custom plugin jar in our 
internal remote repository.
I've tried using the jar:deploy command but I couldn't get the guy to 
put my jar in the right place (maven/plugins/).
No matter how I play with directories (using the propeties), I never 
could get the jar in the maven/plugins dir. So, the plugin:download goal 
cannot be executed to retreive it.

Is there a way to do so without copying them "by hand" in the 
maven/plugin dir of the repository ?

thx.

This leads me to another question, as I am relatively new to Maven.  I have
also noticed expressions like ${context.getVariable('some.variable')}.  I

However, how does ${context.getVariable('some.variable')} differ from the
simpler expression ${some.variable}?
 

I would say (not 100% sure though) that the same principle applies. If 
you call this from one of your project goals, it shouldn't do a 
difference at all. If you write some jelly code in a plugin though, that 
may be a different issue. And even then, I'm not 100% sure that it will 
change something since the plugin context get initialized (for maven 
variables anyway) with values that are supplied by the project itself 
(like basedir, maven.build.dest and others).

Context resolution is more an issue if you to play with plugin's 
variables or properties in you project or even in another plugin.

The issue can become even more interesting in a multi-project build. 
When running a maven build on multiple projects, all "standard" maven 
properties and variables get new values (new contexts) for every single 
project, even if its built in one shot.

Quite powerfull indeed.
Eric.

Hi Jon
I'll give a try to explain the behavior.
Plugins.. When executing, all of them have a context that is built up
live on a specific project. For every property or variable that a plugin
declares, you must call a method of the pom bean to get the actual value
for the property (or variable) that the plugin uses while executing. My
guess with maven.final.name, since its a project variable, is set to
snapshotSignature only in the plugin's context. So its never really set
back to the original value, it just didn't ever change, in your
project's context anyway.
Did you try using this snapshotSignature value directly in your project?
If its empty, ask the plugin for its value, maybe it'll be available in
your post goal using this call:
${pom.getPluginContext('plugin-name').getVariable('variable')
just guessing here...
Hope it helps
Eric.

Re: Multiproject crashing java?

[Eric Giguere]

Hi Mike
I constantly run in these memory issues with reports...
Concerning checkstyle (that one can generate HUGE reports that my 
browser cannot even load!), if you still want to see it (it is usefull 
after all), you can customize the checkstyle engine to skip some tests. 
Currently (by default), checkstyle uses Sun's specifications concerning 
code formatting. Some of their recommendations are a little overkill 
IMHO, especially if you deal with a code base that was not created 
respecting thesestandards.

For instance, here, we comment those items from the checkstyle config 
xml file and we reduced significantly the number of errors and warings 
reported by checkstyle (from 113000 to under 6) :





This, couple with a proper configuration of your favorite code styling 
engine will dramatically reduce the nb. or errors/warnings.

These problems are from the plugins themselves along with the XSLT that 
is executed on the xml versions of the reports. While it generates HTML 
for the report, the complete xml files is parsed and held in memory. So 
other than reducing the size of the reports (if possible), there is no 
real "recommended" values since this whole issue has 2 sources that can 
hardly be generalized:
1- the report plugin
2- the project itself

Ex. Our code base here is 2 years old. The cvsstat report for the 
project's evolution is so big that some browsers cannot even load it. 
And those that can, well, you cannot conclude anything since its so 
small it doesn't make sense. The original xml file for the report is 50 
megs! I had to set the maven mx parameter to 700 megs to get it done.

I'm currently thinking and trying to code some about some kind of patch 
to the report  plugins and the xdoc plugin to tackle this problem... The 
solution to this problem is not obvious and hard to generalize but we'll 
see..

Hope it helps
Eric.

Hi,
I'm trying to do a multiproject site (under Windows) and often get a java
crash (usually during checkstyle). I'm using JDK 1.4.2_04. Although I can
work around this by disabling the checkstyle report, I was curious in
general if there were any recommendations as to the optimal java heap/stack
sizes to use? I tried upping java's -Xmx to 1024m and -Xss to 1024k, and
this initially seemed to resolve the problem, but now I'm seeing it again. I
may try messing with the heap/stack sizes some more, but I was just curious
if anyone had seen similar issues.

Re: Version numbers

[Eric Giguere]

Hi
Try the ant buildnumber tag.
It doesn't provide support for full version number but appending a build 
value to your version number does the trick in many circumstances.

An example :
 
This tag will locate the specified file, read the value in it and 
rewrite after adding 1.
I guess by combining multiple files and the call to the right one when 
incrementing your version could also be a possible solution.

Hope it helps.

You can do this with such a line in your maven.xml (anywhere... not 
required to be in a goal):

Dependencies and child projects

[Eric Giguere]

Hi all

A quick question. I've used the deploy:copy-deps command to copy the 
dependencies of a sub-project. My problem is that all dependencies of 
the master project also got copied... Is there a way to prevent this?

Re: Information about the methods available on POM

[Eric Giguere]

Hello there

The best way is to look directly at the Java class : 
org.apache.maven.project.Project. This is the source for the Project bean.
Its a Java bean so look at all getter/setters... use them from your 
jelly code without the get/set prefix.

I've not seen any valid documentation on it except maybe a small page on 
the maven wiki :  http://wiki.codehaus.org/maven/WritingMavenXml ... and 
maybe the Java doc of that class.

Hope it helps.

Can any one kindly point as to where this documentation exists or what

Re: Plugin configuration and behavior

[Eric Giguere]

Hi again
Euh, I see... Get the maven-plugins from the apache CVS tree.
Either you get the whole project from CVS or, just get the project.xml 
file that is at the root of the plugins project. This way, you should be 
able to update it.
Or, you could just make your tests in a custom plugin (copy the content 
of the javadoc plugin, and rename it) so that you'll be able to install 
it. From what I see in the plugins master project, only these snipits 
could be important to transfer in you new plugin project file :
   
 
   src/plugin-resources
   plugin-resources
 
 
   .
   
 plugin.jelly
 plugin.properties
 project.properties
 project.xml
   
 
   

Hope it helps

Re: Checking from a plugin for the existance of a goal

Solved :)

So for all to see if that can help someone else. Here is some modified 
jelly code extracted from the maven-shell plugin :


   
   
   
   

   
   
   

   
   goal: ${goal}
   

context is a quite nice bean, once you know it exists in the first place.
On the subject, is there anywhere we can look to get a list of all 
"build-in" beans that exists and that we can use in our code?

Re: logging output

[Eric Giguere]

Hi there
I'm not sure if I miss the point but from what I understand, yes, you 
can now log at a goal level.

I guess you may check this : 
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/jelly/libs/log/index.html
There is a nice log taglib for jelly that acts as the well known log4j 
api. This tag lib uses in fact the commons-logging.

You just have to insert this :
 xmlns:log="jelly:log" in the project tag of you maven.xml file. Then, 
you can use the jelly log taglib tags like this :
 bla bla  or bla bla
All log tags also allow to specify which logger instance you want to use 
or logger name using the tags build-in properties.

And these log tags are not reserved to plugins only... maven.xml can 
contain jelly scripting to.
With proper configuration (still have to do that), you will be able like 
in java app to set the log level and since you can specifiy the logger 
instance, you could even filter logging as you want, like we do with 
commons-logging (or log4j).

Hope it helps
Eric.

If you are interested in Ant logging, I submitted a patch
http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=MAVEN-126 called 
MAVEN126.patch that gives you the ability to get Ant logging when 
using Ant tasks.  It is a quick hack to add this functionality, but at 
least should serve as a good example for how to add it yourself.

As far as configuring logging for Maven itself, I do not believe what 
you are trying to do is possible.  If you are working on your own 
tasks, you can use a property for a logging level and handle it 
accordingly in your Jelly.  Currently, Maven does not have a very 
flexible logging system in the core, but I believe this is planned for 
the future.

Compatibility issue with checkstyle repots and jdepend...?

[Eric Giguere]

Hi all

I'm running with a Maven snapshot dating from about 2 weeks. I got a 
small issue with some reports, wondering if anybody else got it.
It concerns the checkstyle report and the jdepend report.
When I run jdepend first, I get a lot of errors from the checkstyle... 
like this one:

Can't find/access AST Node typecom.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.api.DetailAST
And of course report creation fails.
But, if the checkstyle report is run first, then everything is ok. 
Pretty strange...  I performed a search and it seems that this class can 
only be found in the checkstyle jar itself, and only in my local 
repository. Both version 3.1 and 3.3 of checkstyle jar has it.
And the version reported byt the plugin, when running, is 
maven-checkstyle-plugin-2.3-SNAPSHOT...

Don't get it. A wrong jar must be loaded but then both jars of my 
repository seems to have the class in it.
Any clue?

Eric.

Re: xdoc performance/memory issues

[Eric Giguere]

Hi Joshua
Yep, experienced it. The only work around I can think of is to increase 
again the Xmx parameter.
I hit it not with CVS but with checkstyle report... 114 450 errors 
generated quite a report :). Not very practical... my browser (Mozilla 
rules!) never managed to open this 55 megs generated HTML file. The 
rendering engine just had to much...

I'm not sure if it is leaking memory... but it definitely needs A LOT to 
run some reports and this is, of course, directly linked with the xml 
file used as source by the xsl engin.

Anybody ever though about splitting these big reports in multiple pages 
or is it currently under work? If not, I may contribute my solution once 
I get it working.

Eric.

I have a question about xdoc and performance. I've been working with

of memory. If I use MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m I get to about 700 files 
before getting out of memory. Each of the xml files themselves do not 
exceed 100kb in size.

It seems that xdoc is leaking memory, or the xml/xsl parsers are 
leaking. Instead of iterating over the entire directory would the 
memory performance be better by looping in the jelly code of each of 
the files?? Anyone else experienced this

Re: Building multiple jars with Maven

[Eric Giguere]

Hi there
I would say if you like what Maven does and is, do the migration. I did 
it at my company. Basically, Maven is kind of a Super-Ant ( and much 
much more).

There are multiple ways to make Maven do what you need. By design, it 
produces one artifact per project, so you could for instance make one 
project per jar. Or, you could just migrate the existing Ant code and 
put it in your maven.xml with a new goal calling that code.

And if you migrate from an Ant based build system, I think you should 
know that your Ant script, as it is now, could be very easily integrated 
into Maven since any Ant targets can be called in a maven.xml script.

Hope it helps.
Eric.

quite fit my scenario or I do not understand it as well as I think.

Anyway, I have a cvs project containing common utility source 
code  that gets used across a number of our projects.  This is all 
library  code--there is no main(), just a few unit tests.  This 
project includes  packages such as:

 com.mycompany.util.crypto
 com.mycompany.util.log
 com.mycompany.util.string
 com.mycompany.util.xml
 ...etc...
The ant script we currently employ builds multiple jar files from  
this source: mycompany-crypto.jar, mycompany-xml.jar, etc.  This has 
to  be done because of various legal reasons as well as minimizing the 
size  of distributed applications.  We do not want to build one 
gigantic util  jar file containing everything because we do not want 
to (or cannot)  ship the crypto classes to everyone.  Nor do we want 
to ship our custom  XML code out with a program that does not utilize 
it in order to  minimize download sizes as well as exposed object code 
(which can be  decompiled).

I am in the process of evaluating Maven to replace or coexist 
with  our existing Ant build process.  For final release projects, 
Maven is  great because I can tell it where to find 
mycompany-crypto.jar, etc.   For this core "util" project, I am having 
difficulty figuring out how  to best model the behavior I need in 
Maven.  Is there a way to have a  single project.xml output half a 
dozen jar files--one for each package?   Will I have to resort to 
multiple project files (project-crypto.xml,  project-xml.xml, etc) 
with one master project.xml to bind them all?   Should I stick with 
the existing Ant scripts in this one case?

Re: Can I set the classpath for a plugin?

[Eric Giguere]

Hi David

From your message, I'm not sure if this solution may apply but I'll 
give it a try. You can, if you can use the Ant classpath element in your 
plugin. If you need to refer to the classpath of the project 
(dependencies for instance), you still can access it and "insert" those 
entries in your new Ant classpath element using a call like :

...




...> 

Instead of using the complete depencies path, you can add some smart jelly code to pick what you need from the complete classpath of the whole project.

There is a good example of using multiple dependancy path to configure the classpath of an ant:java call in the AspectWerkz plugin jelly script.

Hope it helps
Eric.

Changelog + cvs password

[Eric Giguere]

Hi all
Been browsing through the list history and found some entries concerning 
CVS passwords and the changelog plugin. I'm not sure I understand well 
though :(.
To make this work, we need to define a pregoal in maven.xml for the 
maven-changelog-plugin:report.
That pregoal will use ant:cvspass tag to generate a password file:
(from the archive)


passfile="${itag.cvs.passfile}"/>

But then, this password file needs to be passed to CVS. How exactly do 
we achieve this? The rest of the message found in the archive was 
calling CVS checkout using the ant:cvs tag... But generating the 
changelog report doesn't require checking out but running log command. 
From the jelly script, I can't see this parameter passed in any way. 
How exactly will that work?

And do we really have to "redefine" the cvs root? After all, it is 
defined in the project.xml file. True it must be parsed but...
thx for the help
Eric.

Re: file activity plugin problem on windows

Hi Dion

Euh, check this:
Executed at the command from:
> cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs/cvsroot log -d 
2003-12-30<2004-01-30
I get this error :
> The system cannot find the file specified

On the other hand, if i run this command :
> cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs/cvsroot log -d 
"2003-12-30<2004-01-30"
then I get a lot of output...
Notice the double quotes surrounding the < sign and the dates.

From Emanuelle's advice, I'm currently building (after quite a bit of 
tweeking) maven and its plugins from the CVS snapshot of yesterday 
night. Maybe there was an issue with scm ...???

You think so?
And a note, the maven-changelog-plugin gives me the exact same error 
that the file-activity... cannot find CVS executable :(
thx
Eric.

Re: file activity plugin problem on windows

[Eric Giguere]

Hi again.
Positive, my connect string is ok.
But, if I run the same exact command from the prompt, that is:
> cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs/cvsroot log -d 
2003-12-30<2004-01-30
I get this error :
> The system cannot find the file specified

On the other hand, if i run this command :
> cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs/cvsroot log -d 
"2003-12-30<2004-01-30"
then I get a lot of output...

I wonder if the double quotes are important... It seems that the < sign 
is interpreted by the OS like a file redirection...Maybe I'm totally in 
the left field too (expression here to stay completely wrong ;) ) But if 
so... even Linux gives me the same kind of error so I guess I am wrong...
I don't know...

Any other idea? Oh, thx the the -X, can be usefull but not now, can't 
see anything more on the issue.
Eric.

I've run the same exact command in the prompt

Apparently, cvs is find on your os (you don't have error) but your have no
modification between 2003-12-30 and 2004-01-30
If your want, you can run maven with -X option for debugging and/or -e for
trace error (if you have it).

Re: Problems with Windows 2000 + proxy server

[Eric Giguere]

Hi
Yes, you have to specify your proxy settings with these properties :
## --
## ${user.home}/build.properties
## --
.
.
maven.proxy.host = my.proxyserver.com
maven.proxy.port = 8080
maven.proxy.username = username
maven.proxy.password = password
.
This info can be found in the user guide of maven : 
http://maven.apache.org/reference/user-guide.html#Properties%20Processing
Without this, maven will fail to download its required librairies to run 
the different plugins.

Hope this helps.
Eric.

Hi everybody,



I'm new to this mailing list and a newbie to MAVEN so I'll try not to make you waste much time.



I just downloaded and installed the product (as specified by the instructions on the official site) without facing any problems. However, I haven't even been able to execute the basic test, java:compile, with a single-class sample project I just created. The problem seems to be that MAVEN is not detecting certaing plugins (/components) and is trying to download them from the remote repository (HYPERLINK "http://www.ibiblio.org/"www.ibiblio.org). I believe the source of the problem (or at least part of it) relies on my machine being behind a firewall + proxy server, where the proxy is a Windows NT machine.



This is the output that I get from executing mavan java:compile

Eric almost got it right, but it should be "plugin.getDependencyClasspath()"

Re: Proposed enhancement to jar plugin.jelly

[Eric Giguere]

Hi Jason
Got ya, I'll do that next time (codehaus)
Sure, a couple of reasons: flexibility, ability to use to power of the 
tool shelled by the plugin (Ant jar tag), and in my particular 
situation, write shorter lists of patterns.

This happens mainly in projects that deals with not so well source 
layout scheme, like the one I'm on.
We build jars from a single code base, and at some point, I had an 
exlude list of 8 items, that can be replaced by 1 include. The base dir 
for the jar task holds 9 sub-directories but only one goes in the target 
jar.

Its obvious that such things doesn't happen with well defined project / 
sub project structure or those having one source base, one artifact 
generated, but unfortunetly, we don't always deal with those situations, 
not me in the recent years anyway (corporate world isn't always as clean 
as it shoud...;)). We have one project producing many jars from a single 
source base. In that sense, adding the possibility in the jar plugin 
seems reasonable since it doesn't prevent it from executing in its 
default mode and allowed me to shorten the list.

If I find a way to manipulate some more the  tag using jelly 
(I'm kinda new to this), maybe I'll have some more enhancements to 
propose. After all, the ant:jar tag is way more flexible than what is 
currently exposed with the jar extension. Exposing already existing 
functionnality does seem desirable to me, as long as it doesn't 
compromise the purpose and behavior of the shell itself.

IMHO
Eric.

problems overriding source dir

[Eric Giguere]

Hi all
A small prob, wonder if I'm doing something wrong.
I'm migrating from an Ant based build system to maven.
I've define a sub projects to build all our jars (one projet, multiple 
jars in the distribution).
By defining some overrides in the build.properties, I've manage to build 
the jar using an ant call and by pointing to the master project target 
dir so that all sub projects uses the same list of class files. Not to 
mention that the coupling level is pretty high but correcting this for 
another day.

Anyway, override the source dir should be done by the project.xml file 
using the  element but for a reason, it doesn't work. 
In the maven.xml, I echo the maven.src.dir and it always give me the 
default... ${basedir}/src/java

Here is the project.xml snippit. Anything wrong? Or do I get something 
wrong. I think that this sourceDirectory element would reflect its value 
in the mavan.src.dir? Or must we override this property in the 
build.properties.
...
   3.1.1
   

   ${basedir}/../..
   


My subprojet resides in : 
[master_projet_base_dir]/src/sub-projects/jar_project_1/project.xml

thx for any advice

Eric.

Re: Child project using parent sources

[Eric Giguere]

Sure can, thx for that one :)

But since maven builds most of its properties on {basedir}, i guess then 
that the clean way to change maven.build.dir would be to override in the 
same manner this property in the build.properties of that "sub-project"?

Subject: Child project using parent sources

Hi all
Is there a property somewhere in the projet that can be set to tell a 
sub project to use the parents directories? I'm trying to build multiple 
jars using multiple maven projects but each uses its own sources and 
targets. The class files are in the parent's target.

thx for any advice
Eric.

Multiple remote repsitories + proxy settings

[Eric Giguere]

Hi all
A quick one. We're behind a firewall and use a proxy server to go on the Net.
And we have a "remote" repository for jars that is on our internal network.

Lets say I want to still use the one at ibiblio.org as a fallback repository.
I know how to configure multiple remote repositories but, is it possible to
specify proxy settings for lets say only the second remote repository in the
list? I ask because if I set proxy settings, I can access the default
repository, but not our local one. If I don't set proxy properties, then its
the fallback (ibiblio.org) that becomes innaccessible because of our proxy
server.

Is there a work around?

thx for any help

Eric.

RE: Maven and java version

[Eric Giguere]

Hi Steven
Yep. I had an issue with the javadoc plugin that wouldn't work with jdk 1.4 unless you 
specify its parameter (in the plugin.properties file in the javadoc plugin directory) 
: 

maven.javadoc.useexternalfile = true

Hope it helps

Eric.
