It isn't, but if you contribute a plugin for which you are the only author then maintaining it becomes a problem because you need to rely on a committer to keep the plugin updated. That's not something we want to do. I'm been trying to flush the plugins out to locations where those most interested can work on it freely without being bottlenecked by how fast we process patches. > (I do believe ASF is asking for CLA's for everyone; contributors of patches, > those posting useful ideas on mailing lists, anything intellectual property > related - not just for committers.) It's not an IP issue, it's a maintenance issue. I would like releases for plugins to become fully independent of the core and we're getting there. Having plugins developed elsewhere also encourages this. -- jvz.

Cannot get plugin variable values
Hi, I am having some trouble getting variable values from a plugin context. From one plugin, the following expression retrieves the expected value: ${pom.getPluginContext('maven-javadoc-plugin').getVariable('maven.javadoc.destdir') However, from another plugin, this expression returns no value. How can this happen? Also, this expression returns no value when placed within my maven.xml file. Should I be able to use this type of expression in maven.xml?

I'll just nip this in the bud. If you're not a Maven committer the best place to put the plugin is somewhere you have access to it. We're not going to go through the process of making someone a committer for a plugin. It doesn't matter where plugins are developed anymore, they are easy to install and integrate into a Maven build. If you have a plugin you want to share it ultimately doesn't matter where it's developed and we would actually prefer not to host them here at Apache. -- jvz.

RE: contribution/donation of websphere 5.x and weblogic 8.x plugins
Here's what I know. Hopefully a more authoritative voice chimes in. > 1. What is the process of donating plugins to maven.apache? Donating code in general; You'll need to do one or both of the following; fax or mail a signed Corporate Contributor License Agreement or Software Grant; http://www.apache.org/licenses/cla-corporate.txt or http://www.apache.org/licenses/software-grant.txt If you're an individual contributing then its the individual CLA. It's totally UNclear what constitutes a "body" of work, as opposed to a patch / contribution to an existing project or body of work. My thinking is that the CLA is appropriate for your contribution and not a grant, but I'm no expert. This page discusses the process: http://www.apache.org/foundation/contributing.html , and this page links to the various licenses http://www.apache.org/licenses/ > 2. How long does it take to go through this process? - CLA Process: Discuss if the community wants the patches such as you're doing here. Send in the CLA paperwork. Apply the Apache 2.0 license to your work. Send patch(es), usually using the project's issue tracking tool. - Grant Process: If you have to do the software grant process, I'm not sure how long it takes or how it works. > 3. Are there any requirements/obligations for further support of these > plugins on my part? Not as far as I'm aware unless you want to. I think the operative word(s) are require or obligated. Normally people want to see their contributions through. Of course there's no obligation for the committers of a project to apply the patches or contributions. To that end you should try to re-format your contribution to fit the project's style guidelines, as well as provide unit-tests, documentation, etc. ** One note: The fact the optional plugin's are hosted on Sourceforge.net and not on Apache.org tells me that all of the above may or may not apply. ?? I don't think these codebases are technically ASF anymore? Anyone else know? ** - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
contribution/donation of websphere 5.x and weblogic 8.x plugins
dIon, thanks for url. maven-was5-plugin does not provide goals to setup/destroy cluster(s), start/stop cluster(s) and deploy/undeploy to/from cluster(s). I'll try to contact Richard Lewis-Shell to see his thoughts on functionalities provided by both plug-ins (may be merge to one) but before further development in this direction I still need to provide to my corporate execs the answers to the following questions: 1. What is the process of donating plugins to maven.apache? 2. How long does it take to go through this process? 3. Are there any requirements/obligations for further support of these plugins on my part? Thanks, -edward P.S. Here is a listing of goals and table of properties used to control plugins described in e-mail below (For best viewing paste it in non-word-wrapped text editor (notepad, etc.): 1) plugin for weblogic 8.x 2) plugin for websphere 5.x 3) plugin that executes goals provided by the previous 2 plugins. Determination of which one to use is derived from the property set by user. This property can indicate to use both plugins and the order of the usage. The following listing contains "" that should be substituted by either "weblogic" or "websphere". Here is the listing of goals provided by plugin 1 and 2: :init-env - setup your J2EE appserver environment according to the properties that you specify in project.properties, $USER_HOME/build.properties or properties provided on maven command line (-Dprop.x=x -Dprop.y=y ...). :deploy-ejb - starts necessary servers and deploys your ejb artifacts on , this goal tries to attain :config-resources which in turn calls ${pom.artifactId}::config-resources goal before deploying ejb and calls :post-deploy-config-resources which calls ${pom.artifactId}::post-deploy-config-resources after ejb deployment :deploy-ear - starts necessary servers and deploys your ear artifacts on , this goal tries to attain :config-resources which in turn calls ${pom.artifactId}::config-resources goal before deploying ear and calls :post-deploy-config-resources which calls ${pom.artifactId}::post-deploy-config-resources after ear deployment :undeploy - starts necessary servers and undeploys your j2ee artifacts from this goal tries to attain :clean-resources which in turn calls ${pom.artifactId}::clean-resources goal before undeploying ejb and calls :post-undeploy-clean-resources which calls ${pom.artifactId}::post-undeploy-cleean-resources after undeployment So what ${pom.artifactId}:websphere:blah-blah-blah and ${pom.artifactId}:weblogic:blah-blah-blah goals are for? - These goals must be implemented in every J2EE project's maven.xml. Implementation may be blank. If you are deploying an artifact that requires setup of J2EE resources (ex: deploy MDB that requires JMSQueue) then ths goals should contain the implementation of setup and clean up of J2EE resources (JMSQueue in this case). ${pom.artifactId}::config-resources - goal to accomplish the setup of necessary J2EE resources on required for successful j2ee artifact deployment, this goal is called prior the j2ee artifact deployment ${pom.artifactId}::post-deploy-config-resources - goal to accomplish the setup of necessary J2EE resources on required for successful execution of j2ee artifact, this goal is called after j2ee artifact deployment ${pom.artifactId}::clean-resources - goal to accomplish the cleanup of necessary J2EE resources from required for successful j2ee artifact undeployment, this goal is called prior the j2ee artifact undeployment ${pom.artifactId}:weblogic:post-undeploy-cleean-resources - goal to accomplish the cleanup of necessary J2EE resources from after j2ee artifact undeployment :clean-env - removes all managed servers and clusters form environment that were created at the attainment of :init-env goal In addition you can use the following goals out of band to manage your J2EE runtime environment :startadminserver - starts adminserver :stopadminserver- stops adminserver :startup- starts all admin and managed servers and clusters :shutdown - stops all admin and managed servers and clusters :startmanagedservers- starts all managed servers and clusters :stopmanagedservers - stops all managed servers and clusters :startstandaloneservers - starts all managed standalone servers :stopstandaloneservers - stops all managed standalone servers :startclusters - starts all managed clusters :stopclusters - stops all managed clusters The following table lists the properties used to control the above plugins: #--- --

contribution/donation of websphere 5.x and weblogic 8.x plugins
Hello All, let me first appologize if I'm using wrong mailing list. I have developed the following plugins that I'm interested to donate to maven.apache for further development and maintanence: 1) plugin for weblogic 8.x 2) plugin for websphere 5.x 3) plugin that executes goals provided by the previous 2 plugins. Determination of which one to use is derived from the property set by user. This property can indicate to use both plugins and the order of the usage. The first two plugins provide symmetric functionality to setup/destroy servers/clusters; startup/shutdown of servers/clusters; ejb/ear (war, rar type artifacts can be added easily) deployment/undeployment to servers/clusters or subset of servers in a cluster; j2ee resource setup/destroy from servers/clusters. So before you dive into the details of these plugins I'm looking for answers to the following questions: 1. What is the process of donating plugins to maven.apache? 2. How long does it take to go through this process? 3. Are there any requirements/obligations for further support of these plugins on my part? I need these answers to provide to corporate execs before they can make any decisions on the donation of these plugins. (There may be follow up questions) The attached file contains the listing of goals and properties used to control the above plugins.
