Maven is not that much more difficult then ant, it is different.

Please take a look at the maven book [1], this explains everything in
a very good way!

Oh, and for your compile problem. Put your java sources in
src/main/java, your resources in src/main/resources, your unit tests
in src/test/java/ en your unit test resources in src/test/java. These
are the default directories for maven.

 I used to manually compile my sources and copy them to

 Enter Maven and what a nightmare! I haven't used any tool that is as
 complicated as Maven! You may all diagree (since you know maven) but
 for firsttime users, this is useless.

 I installed Maven and compiled the Hello World test application successfully.

 Then I created a webapp archetype,

 $ mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=mywebapp  -DartifactId=mywebapp
 -DpackageName=mywebapp -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp
 -Dversion=1.0.0

 (oh yeah, it complains that create is deprecated and to use
 generate... while there is no mention of this anywhere online)

 I copied my source to resources/, and web.xml to the  WEB-INF/

 Here's my pom.xml

 So I'm not sure where to go from here. Most examples never talk about
 the compile process and what happens during this phase. I have looked
 plenty online for help and clues but found none to be useful. The
 maven documentation itself is complicated.

 Why isn't there a simple webapplication example using maven?. No i
 don't want to use Jetty. I just want to compile a war file and deploy
 it on tomcat (manually).

 Sorry for venting. Ant is so much better in simplicity. But I don't
 want to use Ant tasks in Maven since my application will grow to be
 complex and I want to use Maven as advertised but the learning curve
 sucks!

Re: Maven webapp and extreme complexity

You created your project with the sample webapp as archetype. It is
recommended to seperate your java files and your webapp in seperate
modules and add a dependency between the modules. For your first maven
project you can simply create the src/main/java yourself (it is just a
directory) and put your java files in there.

 Yes, I did refer to this as well. It does not talk about an end to end
 web application example or for moving from ant to maven in web
 application context.


 Oh, and for your compile problem. Put your java sources in

 I don't see src/main/java but only src/main/resources and src/main/webapp

 your resources in src/main/resources,

 Is resources the same as my source code? If so, I tried that and I
 still get No resources to compile .. or something similar.

 I haven't gone that far yet. I'm still struggling to get a simple
 webapplication to compile and create a war file.

Trying to deploy site...

I am trying to deploy a project site, but it seems that the deployment
possibilities are very limited?

eg. I am trying this:

  distributionManagement
site
  idproject-site/id
  urlscp://localhost/home/admin/test/url
/site
  /distributionManagement

But then I get:
Embedded error: The host was not known and was not accepted by the
configuration: localhost
reject HostKey: localhost

It doesn't accept localhost?? why??

Also, I would actually like to be able to use another port (than 22) is this
even possible?

The documentation regarding the distribution options/protocols seems almost
non-existant, or?

Re: Trying to deploy site...

scp is using ssh so you need a key generated. If you are building and
deploying locally, try to just stage the site to the directory you want.

enforcer and components.

2008-12-16 Thread Nord, James

Hi all,
 
I have the following in a custom enforcer rule

ScmManager scmManger = (ScmManager)
helper.getComponent(ScmManager.class);

Which fails with Component descriptor cannot be found in the component
repository: org.apache.maven.scm.manager.ScmManager.

My rule has dependencies on maven-scm-api in it's pom and looking at the
release plugin plexus will resolve the ScmManager.  So how do I get hold
of it inside an enforcer rule?

Regards,

/James

You could try the ftp deployment instead of scp, that might work. But if you
are staying local, use site-stage will solve your issue.

if not local to the box, then you need a deployment declaration like you are

I wouldn't say that profiles are analagous to Ant targets, no; you might be
able to make them react that way, but that's not really the intent.
The closest analog to an Ant target is a maven lifecycle phase, like
install; there's a pre-defined lifecycle that Maven follows, and you can
bind plugins of your choosing to that lifecycle.  This works well in many
'build' scenarios, but it's also true that Maven is tailored around those
kind of environments, and isn't as well suited for the world of execute
some arbitrary work for me as Ant would be.

That said, it's not hard to imagine using Maven to build an installer or
some Docbook documentation; each of these might be a module on a larger
multi-module project.

You are doing it wrong. Maven has no targets like ant has. Maven has
lifecylces [0] which is built of phases (e.g. 'compile', package',
'install'). Plugins are attached to phases and are executed whenever
a phase is executed.

Profiles are used to configure plugins in different ways.

Start reading the documentation at [1] and especially the books
Better builds with Maven and Maven - The Definitve Guide. Both
are available online for free. Search this archive or google it.

RE: Are Maven profiles like Ant targets?

You probably want to use a plugin.  For instance you could use the
DocBook plugin.

http://maven-plugins.sourceforge.net/maven-sdocbook-plugin/index.html

Once you have this plugin you can simply run the command:

mvn sdocbook

You will also want to get a better understanding of Maven's build
lifecycle and undertand how lifecycles, phases and goals are related.
It is more complex than ant targets but is also far more powerful.

http://books.sonatype.com/maven-book/reference/lifecycle.html

Ultimately, you will want to hide the fact that your particular project
is using  DocBook by binding these goals to a certain phase of the build
lifecycle. ie: you will never have to run the mvn sdocbook command
explicitly (although you still could if you needed to). What part of the
lifecycle will be up to you but creating PDFs would likely best be
sutied to the site lifecycle.

Good luck.

Good.

 I think it is a bug in the webapp archetype that java directory isn't

No, it's not. As Nick mentioned earlier, it's best practice to separate your

Using variable in : resourcefiltering${filterConfig}/filteringresource

2008-12-16 Thread mustaghattack


I'd like to define in a parent pom resources like that :
resources
resource
directory${configDirectory}/directory
filtering${filterConfig}/filtering  
  
/resource
resource
directorysrc/main/resources/directory
filtering${filterResources}/filtering   
 
/resource
/resources

I can use a variable for the directory element, but for the filtering
element, only true and false are accepted. Using a variable result in a
false value (even if the variable is set to true).

Is there any reason for that ?

Thanks,
Bruno

Re: Maven webapp and extreme complexity

Take a look at chapter 5 of the book. It creates a simple webapp. In
chapter 5.5 it adds a servlet to src/main/java.

Thanks for your patience.  Creating the java directory and copying the

I think it is a bug in the webapp archetype that java directory isn't created.

Resource Filtering - property not defined?

2008-12-16 Thread David C. Hicks

I encountered a situation this morning in which a very strange bug 
showed up in the system I'm working on - caused by the fact that we were 
filtering our resources.  The particular substitution in question, 
however, was not a defined value at build time.  It was in a Struts 
package file and in the form:


${slotAssignment.id}

The value that got substituted for it was the Maven artifact identifier 
for the project.


My question then, is does Maven have a default behavior for filtering 
files when filtering is activated AND the property that is referenced 
cannot be found?  It seems to default to the project artifact, but I 
can't find any mention of it.  So, I figured I'd ask here.


Thanks,
Dave

Are Maven profiles like Ant targets?

I'm coming from the Ant world, where targets are fundamental. Need to  
generate the JavaDocs and a JAR? Write targets called javadoc and  
jar then do:


  ant javadoc
  ant jar

In Maven, these particular tasks have built-in plugins, so there's no  
need to write a target. Instead you just invoke the plugin goal:


  mvn javadoc:javadoc
  mvn jar:jar

But there are many scenarios in which no plugin is available. For  
instance, I use install4j to build an installer, and I use DocBook to  
translate XML into PDF. Accomplishing these tasks with the AntRun  
plugin is easy enough, but it's not clear how to actually invoke them.  
The Ant concept of a target does not exist in Maven.


Maven does have profiles, however. I'm able to put the install4j stuff  
into a profile called install4j and the DocBook stuff into a profile  
called docbook. Then I can do:


  mvn -Pinstall4j
  mvn -Pdocbook

This works, but from an end-user standpoint it's a little confusing.  
For some things you invoke a plugin goal but for other things you  
invoke a profile. It's inconsistent. Also, the Build Profiles chapter  
of the Maven book mentions nothing about this use case. It only talks  
about profiles for the purpose of build portability.


So... am I doing this right? Are profiles intended to play the role of  
Ant targets? Or is there some other mechanism for that?

Deploy a POM with Properties Filterred/interpolated

2008-12-16 Thread Trevor Paterson


I can't find any response on the list to the problem of how to
prefilter/interpolate properties ( such as version numbers ) in an
artifact's POM upon Deploying to a repository. The default is for the
unfilterred project POM to be uploaded.

we have many variable properties in our POMs to control artifact and
depedency artifact versions and need these interpolated before deployment.

On a related issue we would also like to exclude any build directives from
the uploaded POM, but to edit a POM manually to achieve all this seems
unecessarily laborious!

Thanks for any help

Re: Are Maven profiles like Ant targets?


On Dec 16, 2008, at 10:43 AM, Todd Thiessen wrote:


You probably want to use a plugin.  For instance you could use the
DocBook plugin.

http://maven-plugins.sourceforge.net/maven-sdocbook-plugin/index.html


The sdocbook plugin does not work with Maven 2.

I also tried the more recent docbook plugin:

http://mojo.codehaus.org/docbook-maven-plugin/

But it's in a very alpha stage and lacks basic features (e.g. PDF  
generation).


That's why I'm using the AntRun plugin; it gives me access to Ant's  
Xslt task for transforming DocBook.



You will also want to get a better understanding of Maven's build
lifecycle and undertand how lifecycles, phases and goals are related.
It is more complex than ant targets but is also far more powerful.

http://books.sonatype.com/maven-book/reference/lifecycle.html


I'm familiar with the lifecycles, but it's strange you should say they  
are more powerful than Ant targets because they seem less powerful, at  
least when using the AntRun plugin. For example, my DocBook AntRun  
stuff is used for generating developer documentation, so binding it to  
any of the default lifecycle phases doesn't make sense. The site phase  
of the site lifecycle is probably the best place to put it, but then  
it gets tossed in with everything else in that phase. There's no way  
to run the DocBook stuff by itself; I have to run it along with  
everything else in the site phase.


So in that sense, lifecycles are less powerful than Ant targets  
because they are more coarsely grained. I don't have the same control  
over what gets run. If, however, I put the DocBook stuff into a  
separate profile then suddenly I have that control. I don't know how  
else to get it without profiles.

You are doing it wrong. Maven has no targets like ant has. Maven has
lifecylces [0] which is built of phases (e.g. 'compile', package',

Well, without profiles, I don't know how to do it right. For example,  
I use the AntRun plugin to invoke install4j, which builds installers  
for my artifact. Binding this to the deploy phase probably makes the  
most sense, but if I do that, the deploy goal of the deploy plugin  
also runs. There's no way to tell Maven to just run the install4j stuff.


If, however, I split off the install4j stuff into an install4j  
profile and bind it to the package phase, then I can do:


  mvn -Pinstall4j package

And suddenly Maven does exactly what I want: It runs install4j and  
nothing else. Without profiles, how can I accomplish this?

RE: Are Maven profiles like Ant targets?

They are more powerful in the sense that you can still call any goal
independantly, but still have the flexibility to bind it to a phase
which is part of a well defined life cycle.  You get the best of both
worlds this way.

Perhaps the doxia plugin would work?

http://maven.apache.org/doxia/book/index.html

Not sure what you are doing in your profile that solves your issue
though. If you give some further info on this, perhaps some of the more
experieced Maven users can provide you with a pure Maven solution.

If you wish to run something independently, you don't need ant or Maven
for this. Run run the executable.

 The sdocbook plugin does not work with Maven 2.
 
 I also tried the more recent docbook plugin:
 
 http://mojo.codehaus.org/docbook-maven-plugin/
 
 But it's in a very alpha stage and lacks basic features (e.g. 
 PDF generation).
 
 That's why I'm using the AntRun plugin; it gives me access to 
 Ant's Xslt task for transforming DocBook.
 
  You will also want to get a better understanding of Maven's build 
  lifecycle and undertand how lifecycles, phases and goals 
 are related.
  It is more complex than ant targets but is also far more powerful.
 
  http://books.sonatype.com/maven-book/reference/lifecycle.html
 
 I'm familiar with the lifecycles, but it's strange you should 
 say they are more powerful than Ant targets because they seem 
 less powerful, at least when using the AntRun plugin. For 
 example, my DocBook AntRun stuff is used for generating 
 developer documentation, so binding it to any of the default 
 lifecycle phases doesn't make sense. The site phase of the 
 site lifecycle is probably the best place to put it, but then 
 it gets tossed in with everything else in that phase. There's 
 no way to run the DocBook stuff by itself; I have to run it 
 along with everything else in the site phase.
 
 So in that sense, lifecycles are less powerful than Ant 
 targets because they are more coarsely grained. I don't have 
 the same control over what gets run. If, however, I put the 
 DocBook stuff into a separate profile then suddenly I have 
 that control. I don't know how else to get it without profiles.

Re: Final Memory

2008-12-16 Thread Wayne Fay

 What does the Final Memory detail represent when Maven finishes? I can't
 find any documentation on what the two numbers mean.

 [INFO] Final Memory: 1M/4M

I'm not certain, but I'd expect the first number to be amount of
memory currently consumed when this INFO log was generated and the
second to be the largest amount of memory consumed during the build.
Or something along those lines. I've never paid a lot of attention to
it, to be honest.

You could probably grep the Maven source and find it pretty quickly,
if you cared enough. (If someone does that and finds out the answer,
please post it.)

Resport of Junit tests in other folder

Let me use a different plugin as an example. Let's say I'm developing  
a desktop application, and it runs in two different modes depending on  
the command-line options. I don't want to keep typing in the same long  
string of options all the time, so I pickle them into two separate Ant  
targets, mode1 and mode2. Then I can run them like this:


ant mode1
ant mode2

How would I accomplish this in Maven? There's the exec plugin, but it  
has only one goal (exec:java). There's no way to run the application  
in two different ways with just that one goal. Not without profiles,  
that is. With profiles, I can create two profiles, mode1 and  
mode2, and define an exec plugin in each one. Then I can run them  
like this:


mvn -Pmode1 exec:java
mvn -Pmode2 exec:java

So there's an example where profiles have nothing to do with build  
portability and are playing the same role as Ant targets.


If you wish to run something independently, you don't need ant or

for this. Run run the executable.


Isn't that like saying Ant or Maven aren't necessary for compiling  
Java code because you can just run the javac executable? Doesn't make

setting ant attribute with value from pom

2008-12-16 Thread cause


Hello, 

I'm having problem setting ant attribute with a property passed from pom
file. 

Here is the pom part where I call ant target: 
  
ant antfile=build.xml target=update-dependencies-in-shared-repository 
property name=shared-repo
value=${shared.repository}/ 
 /ant 

Here is the ant file: 

project name=Update Shared Repository
default=update-dependencies-in-shared-repository 
 xmlns:artifact=urn:maven-artifact-ant 

path id=maven-ant-tasks.classpath
path=lib/maven-ant-tasks-2.0.9.jar/ 
typedef resource=org/apache/maven/artifact/ant/antlib.xml
uri=urn:maven-artifact-ant 
 classpathref=maven-ant-tasks.classpath/ 

target name=update-dependencies-in-shared-repository 
echo${shared-repo}/echo 
artifact:dependencies filesetId=dependency.fileset 
artifact:pom id=maven.project file=pom.xml/ 
artifact:localRepository path=${shared-repo}/ 
/artifact:dependencies 
/target 

/project 

I'm interested in using ${shared-repo} parameter, but although echo prints
the correct value of this parameter, it doesn't set localRepository path
(and default is used instead). 
Hope my problem is clear and not too stupid :). Any help would be
appreciated. 
Thanks

e.html#Plugins

and I believe the definitive guide has some examples too.  You should be
able to execute the same exe with as many different parameters as you
like.

But you still would have to bind it to a phase, which you don't want to
do.  So I agree with you that Maven is definitely heavy weight if all
you wish to do is execute an exe with different parameters each time.
It doesn't do this nicely. You probably just want a simple script for
that.

  If you wish to run something independently, you don't need ant or 
  Maven for this. Run run the executable.
 
 Isn't that like saying Ant or Maven aren't necessary for 
 compiling Java code because you can just run the javac 
 executable? Doesn't make sense...

Not at all.  If all I wanted to do is compile java code, then javac
would be the tool of choice.  But developers generally want to do a
whole lot more in conjuntion with compiling java code.  If all you want
to do is run some exe, then using ant or maven is somewhat overkill.  A
script does this just fine.

But if the reason why you are running this exe is somehow linked to
building your overall project, then binding it to a certain phase starts
to make sense. It all depends on what you want.

Yes I get the same thing from within the IDE -- a full build fails with the
same errors as when using command line.

I am getting errors such as the number of expected objects found in the
database are greater than what was expected.  I am running my DAO tests
using an embedded HSQLDB database, so I expect to start with a fresh table
every time, then do some inserts, etc., then do a find call to see how many
are in the table, and then make an assertion based on the expected number,
and this is where it fails when running a full build.  I also get errors for
a test which is listening to a message queue for messages to be consumed,
and this one fails as often as not during a full build but passes every time
when running by itself.

maven 2.0.9+ and windows absolute paths

2008-12-16 Thread Dmitry Beransky

Hi,

It seems that Maven 2.0.9 has introduced a bug where Windows absolute
paths aren't being properly resolved.  A project that builds just fine
with 2.0.8 produces this error under 2.0.9:

[INFO] An Ant BuildException has occured: Failed to copy E:\svn\team\csa\main\re
sources\WEB-INF\log4j-production.xml to E:\svn\team\csa\main\e:\temp\maven\csa\t
arget\csa-5.2.1\WEB-INF\classes\log4j.xml due to java.io.FileNotFoundException E
:\svn\team\csa\main\e:\temp\maven\csa\target\csa-5.2.1\WEB-INF\classes\log4j.xml
 (The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)

Notice that e: is being treated as a relative path.

Here's the plugin where the error happens:

${buildDirectory} is defined in the same pom as:

And the project's output directory is set in a parent pom:

 outputDirectory${buildDir}/classes/outputDirectory

   properties
 workDir${java.io.tmpdir}/workDir
 buildDir${workDir}/maven/${pom.artifactId}/target/buildDir
   /properties


Has anyone seen this or similar problem before, any ideas how to solve it?

I've tried compiling the latest version of Maven 2.1 from the
subversion repo and I'm getting the same error there too.


Thanks
Dmitry

No, in the book they always pass the exec arguments on the command  
line. See:


http://books.sonatype.com/maven-book/reference/customizing.html#section-custom-exec

But you still would have to bind it to a phase, which you don't want

I'm not trying to avoid anything. If binding to a phase would solve  
the problems, then I'd do it. But simply binding a plugin to a phase  
is not enough, for reasons I have shown.



So I agree with you that Maven is definitely heavy weight if all
you wish to do is execute an exe with different parameters each time.
It doesn't do this nicely. You probably just want a simple script for

Or I could just use profiles.

How do I build one jar per class file controlling the name of the jar?

2008-12-16 Thread CheapLisa


I am using an open source product that requires a jar to be built for every
single .java
file.

The java files are all in the same directory like so:
src/main/java/com/acme/product/Name1.java
src/main/java/com/acme/product/Name2.java
src/main/java/com/acme/product/Name3.java

What I need to build are 3 jar files with only one class in each
and have the name of each jar file be the same as the Java class
name so like:
Name1.jar
Name2.jar
Name3.jar

and then I need to copy these files to a specific directory.

Is there a way to do this with maven?  ( examples please !!!)

You need to create individual jar modules for each class, then use the

So, if you can run the same tests without Maven and get the same errors,
that seems to point pretty conclusively to the tests themselves.

I am getting errors such as the number of expected objects found in the
database are greater than what was expected. I am running my DAO tests
using an embedded HSQLDB database, so I expect to start with a fresh table

If the tests leaving things in the database, I'm vaguely surprised that
running a single test twice doesn't have the same problem. Although if
you're using an Embedded HSQLDB, perhaps you're not persisting the database.
You could try and verify the database state in an @AfterTransaction call if
you're using the annotated spring test runner. Sounds like the database
rollback isn't working as expected, to me -- although it's difficult to tell
over an email conversation. ;)

 I've been trying to enforce my plugin versions with the enforcer
 plugin and this works fine for plugins used during the build, but I am
 a bit confused about the plugins used by the reporting section.

 A few cases:

 1. Declare reporting plugin in reporting section without a version
 -Enforcer plugins fails on plugin without a version
 - help:effective-pom doesn't show a version

 2. Declare reporting plugin in reporting section with a version
- Enforcer plugin doesn't complain.
- help:effective-pom shows the version

 3. Declare reporting plugin in reporting section without a version and
 declare a build/pluginmanagement/plugin with a version
- Enforcer plugin doesn't complain.
- help:effective-pom doesn't show a version

 Especially use case 3 seems a bit off.

 I know of the issues with missing reporting/pluginmanagment tag, but
 can this be solved in the requirepluginversions rule?
