Re: how to run compile and packaging before test?

[Malte Skoruppa]

Just scanning http://maven.apache.org and its not obvious by the
content on the page where the books are.

Its over in the menu on the left under Documentation > Books and Resources

I wonder if we should add a section under "Learning about Maven".

When you might have gone looking, where would you expect to find this info?



I actually only learned about the books from this mailing list. A new 
user won't usually read the entire menu. They will just scan it.
To get started with Maven on the website, I only read the documentation 
links under "User Centre". I think it would be a good idea if at least 
the "Getting Started Guide" had one sentence at the very end that went 
something like "To find out more about Maven, check out the href=...>books!" Then, at least everybody who checks out the Getting 
Started Guide at least KNOWS that there are books ;-)


Meanwhile, one doesn't necessarily have to buy a book to learn about the 
Maven lifecycle. This is also explained on the website:

http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html
A link to the Guides index (guides/index.html) at the end of the Getting 
Started Guide would also be a good idea, for the same reasons.

Ok, I'll get around to patching that.

Yes, but it doesn't go into enough details.

The *free* books do.

This actually surprised me. Free?
Looking at the "Books and Resources" page more closely, I found but 
*one* book that is free, namely the "Better Builds with Maven" (2006, 
covers Maven 2.0.4 - i.e., rather old).

For all the other books, there are Amazon (and similar) links.

If these other books are also freely available, this should certainly be 
put forward more clearly on the page, with appropriate links.


Apart from the books, the "Books and Resources" page links to a plethora 
of articles on this and that about Maven. But that is not what you'd 
call a structured introduction to Maven, let alone a "book". (Well, at 
least, that's not where I'd go digging if I wanted to find out more 
about, say, the build lifecycle. I'd go to the Guides index in that 
case. At least that's sorted by category.)


On a sidenote, I also noticed that the page links to "JavaBlackBelt's 
Maven Exam" on javablackbelt.com under "Miscellaneous on Maven". 
However, javablackbelt.com does not exist anymore [1], and the "Maven 
Exam" link is dead. [2]

Oh, and I forgot to mention that "Maven: The Definitive Guide" book 
which apparently is also free, although you can also buy a printed version.


However, the http link to the book on sonatype.com is dead. It should be 
updated.


It would also be helpful for users who scan that page if the free books 
were somehow better visually highlighted. Like a big green button that 
says "Free!" beside the corresponding book or whatever.

Multi-modules projects

[Michael Priess]

Hi,

our projects have the following structure:

- parent pom
-- pom.xml
cpp--pom.xml
java--pom.xml

To build a project like this we must invoke different build steps. For the
CPP build we like to invoke gcc for the java build we like to invoke javac
and many other steps. In our enviroment we have a lot of builds which are
similar.

Is there a way to define the builds steps in one place to avoid
duplications of the javac and gcc build configuration. I like to inherite
or get the build steps from one central place and use this steps in a multi
module project. Any idea howto resolve this?

Cheerrs,

Michael

Re: Multi-modules projects

[Stephen Connolly]

 is your friend

The C++ code should be using a different packaging type, that way it can
bind the plugins that your C++ packaging needs to the corresponding
lifecycle phases and then...

mvn compile

will do just that, irrespective of whether you are in the C++ or the Java
module, and likewise for

mvn test

mvn package

mvn install

mvn deploy

etc

AW: Multi-modules projects

I have similar Projects consisting of Java, Flex and .Net artifacts.
I usually configure the plugins in the root of the maven Project and use 
self-activating maven profiles.

Flex is active if a Directory src/main/flex exists, Npanday is used if i have 
src/main/csharp and so on.

Malte,
Great points.
File a few JIRA issues describing the problems that you are finding.
That way they will get on the list of things to do.

I think that you might find some of the books are free in their 
electronic formats but are not free if you want paper.

Question: Maven Pathes includes and others

[Hoffmann Martin (UniCredit Business Integrated Solutions)]

Dear All,

I'm trying to get the Junit tests for an multi module Project running. All test 
run fine, expect one test.

I don't use the standard maven hierarchy, because the project is very old and 
yet we start to mavenize it.

First of all a snippet of my Child Pom:


${project.groupId}_${project.artifactId}
./src



${project.build.sourceDirectory}


src/de/hvb/roldial3/core/xml/*.xml

src/de/hvb/roldial3/core/xml/*.xsl


de/hvb/roldial3/core/xml/



${project.build.sourceDirectory}


src/de/hvb/roldial3/core/castor/*.xml


de/hvb/roldial3/core/castor/


${project.parent.basedir}


config/application/MQ/ugiscerts_V20

config/application/MQ/mdrKeyStore

.





com.google.code.maven-replacer-plugin
replacer
1.5.2


validate

replace





${project.parent.basedir}/rochade730/appl/rochade.ini



D:\MavenProjects\roldial3\default

${project.parent.absolutePath}





org.apache.maven.plugins
maven-compiler-plugin
3.1


org.apache.maven.plugins
maven-surefire-plugin
2.16


true

${project.build.sourceDirectory}

${project.build.directory}/classes/


${basedir}/${project.parent.relativePath}


**/*Test.java

true
always

${user.dir}

true





src

*.xml




src/de/hvb/roldial3/core/xml

*.xsl
*.xml


de/hvb/roldial3/core/xml



src/de/hvb/roldial3/core/castor

*.xml


de/hvb/roldial3/core/castor






In my Java class I use the following line, which makes the problem:

String cgfFileName = getSystemProperty("hvbappsdata")
+ "/config/application/mq.properties";


The property file looks like this:

WMQ_KEYSTORE_LOCATION=../../MQ/mdrKeyStore
WMQ_TRUSTSTORE_LOCATION=../../MQ/ugiscerts_V20


The problem is, that maven doesn't find the path

Re: Question: Maven Pathes includes and others

[Adrien Rivard]

Hi,

I would try systemPropertyVariables and not  in the
maven-surefire-plugin

like

true

maven deploy plugin fails with artifact-not-found

[Sankaran, Nambi]

I’m trying to deploy a snapshot version of the artifact for the first time.
Maven deploy fails with error “could not find artifact in the remote repository”
Obviously the artifact was never deployed in the remote repository, so it is 
not available in the remote repository.

Tried with various versions of “deploy” plugin, the issue happens in all of 
them.

How to deploy a snapshot version on an empty repository?

You try to deploy something that has to be built first, a step that is 
skipped in your case. Try "mvn deploy" instead.

Re: maven deploy plugin fails with artifact-not-found

[Sankaran, Nambi]

Yes, did try ³mvm deploy². But it fails in an empty repo.

This is a parent pom file ( packaging = pom ).
This pom contains  section and
 section that¹s all.

* Deploy a new relocation pom at the old coordinates with a bigger version.
* Include this new relocation version.

These books are cc licensed and we do take pull requests of enhancements.

The source is at

https://github.com/sonatype/maven-reference-en

I have created a patch for the Maven site that fixes the links and
attached it to

https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGSITE-194

Feel free to apply the patch and push a new site out. Also let me know if
you need anything else so that the patch can be applied.

AW: Painless way to update a frameworks group id?

[Christofer Dutz]

Good Idea ...

Unfortunately as we are not allowed to publish the Adobe artifacts (Flash 
Player / Air libs) we decided not to publish the Flex artifacts at all. Then a 
redirect seems rather problematic. Currently each user has to locally deploy 
the Flex SDK using a special tool in order to be on the safe side :-(

downloading artifacts from maven repo

[Alejandro . Endo]

I am trying to create a maven project that needs to package a bunch of 
maven artifacts to finally invoke jwrapper using the exec-maven-plugin. 
Because this project is mostly an integration task (jars are already 
compiled and deploy in a maven repo) i am wondering what are the tools 
available to download artifacts from a repo. Something like 
dependency:copy-dependencies or dependency:get but that would let me work 
in a more generic way such as "download every jar under 
com.mycompany.projectA.* and put it in target/libA"
Having an explicit list of dependencies in the pom itself is not an option 
since 1) there are hundreds of jars 2) it introduces having to maintain a 
list of jars to use. I want to use instead "coordinate wildcards" to 
download whole areas of the repo.

I was planning on writing such a library (which later could be easily made 
into a maven plugin) but i wanted to know if there is something similar 
already in existence.

Apart from the question of whether such a thing exists, I also want to 
know what are the philosophical arguments against it, if any. I have heard 
here talk about anything remotely touching integration should not be a job 
for maven, is that really the case? in this case i am still building an 
application, just not by compiling code but by integrating multiple jars

Any thoughts?

Yes: http://eclipse.org/aether/

Don't even start thinking of reinventing that particular wheel.

[Mirko Friedenhagen]

Christofer,

this depends on your definition of "we" :-). In a company context with an
internal repository manager you might deploy a "vendor" release into your
patched thirdparty repository. Or tell your users to manually install the
patched version. I did similar stuff for this strange
m2e-maven-plugin-configuration-holder (
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7905501/get-rid-of-pom-not-found-warning-for-org-eclipse-m2elifecycle-mapping
)
