Re: Using settings properties

2011-01-19 Thread Anders Hammar
I would strongly suggest that you move the distMgmt section to a corporate
parent pom instead. So when (if?) you change the urls, you just update the
parent pom (and yes, you do need to update the reference in any project
inheriting from it). Anything in your pom that could change depending on the
environment is most often a bad idea.

Having a look at how things like this is solved within the open source world
(the apache parent or the codehaus parent), would give you good ideas of
best practice.

Re: Using settings properties

2011-01-19 Thread Lucas Persson

Hi

At my company we use properties in the global setting.xml which the 
build is dependent. This make sense since our build is strictly within 
our company and everyone uses the same maven installation

For instance:
(in setting.xml)

core

/ade/viper


(in pom.xml)


sdp
default
SDP Repository
false
file://${adeViewRoot}/sdp/maven2-snapshots


I suppose that you could use environment variable, like:

sdp-site
Service Delivery Platform Site
file:///net/${env.WEB_SERVER_NAME}${env.WEB_SERVER_BASE_LOCAL_DIR}/${oracle.sdp.release}/${env.ADE_VIEW_LABEL}/reports



I think you might want to check the schema for setting.xml to see where 
you can add the element .



Cheers
Lucas

Other properties seem to get resolved during a build, however when I do a
deploy, maven uses the variable name with the leading ${ and trailing },
instead of the resolved variable value.

Any ideas?

Very bad practice! The repositories defined in the pom MUST be possible for
other people (other projects depending on your artifacts) to resolve. Using
properties defined in settings.xml makes that impossible.

Using settings properties

2011-01-19 Thread mjk
Is it possible to use properties defined in settings.xml within
 and ?

Other properties seem to get resolved during a build, however when I do a
deploy, maven uses the variable name with the leading ${ and trailing },
instead of the resolved variable value.

Any ideas?
