http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/clover/



Changes in this version include:

  New Features:

o Added ability for users to specify their own Clover license file by 
  overriding the new maven.clover.license.path property. 
o Added new clover:test-single goal to execute a single test case and to view 
  the test coverage result directly using the Clover Swing viewer. This is 
  useful if you wish to quickly see the action that a single unit test has on 
  the code it tests. Issue: MPCLOVER-9. 

  Fixed bugs:

o The default compiler was not reset after the execution of the clover:report 
  goal. Issue: MPCLOVER-23. 
o Now using maven:get and maven:set. Issue: MPCLOVER-19. 
o When executing clover:on and clover:off, modify the maven.build.dest 
  property value in the Root context of all plugins so that the value change 
  is available in all Maven plugins. 
o Prevented the clover:on goal from failing when there are no unit tests 
  sources available. 

  Changes:

o Made the following goals public by documenting them: clover:report, 
  clover:on, clover:off, clover:test, clover:test-single. 
o The clover:report goal does not call the tests anymore. It only generates 
  Clover reports. 
o Updated to Clover Ant 1.3_01.

Re: Status of J2EE related plugins

What do you call appserver processing? For example, I'd like to develop a jboss 
plugin that creates a valid jboss deployment configuration (i.e. what you'll 
find in jbosshome/server/). I had planned to create a jboss plugin 
for that. Then, if I want to add a goal to start/stop jboss, where does it go: 
in the appserver plugin or in this jbossplugin?

I think containers are pretty different in their configuration, deployment 
features, etc and that it may warrants a separate plugin for each container. 
However, there are pros and cons for both strategies (one plugin vs N plugins). 

Ideas?
Thanks

Absolutely. Definition of src directories is done qt the plugin level. For 
example, the Cactus plugin defines a src/test-cactus directory. The 
PatternTestig Maven plugin (http://patterntesting.sf.net) defines a src/test-
aspect directory.

Not much. There has been the start of an EJB redirector in the past but it has 
n't been integrated.

The workaround is to patch the Cactus/Maven plugin by adding support for EAR. 
More specifically this means adding:
- cactification of an EAR (the script already has cactification of a WAR). 
- modify the container-specific scripts to support deploying an EAR (for JBoss 
it is almost transparent as WAR and EAR are deployed in the same directory).

It shouldn't be too hard to do. I can certainly provide guidance if you're 
interested in participating!

Re: pmd plugin, maven b8-9

Hi Fabian,

It also fails for me (even after adding the missing dependencies). I've just 
sent a few bug reports to the maven-plugins WRT the issues. I hope someone 
listens to it at the other end...

My feeling is that the PMD plugin should be included in Maven CVS so it has a 
higher chance of staying up to date with Maven.

Re: Problem with Cactus and jboss-3.0.4_tomcat-4.1.12

2003-03-28 Thread vmassol
Hi Willie,

ATM, the Cactus plugin works with the JBoss/Jetty combo. It has not been 
tested with JBoss/Tomcat and thus it is not supported. That said, I would be 
glad to add this support.

In your specific case, it means it is missing the tomcat jars in the 
classpath. FYI, the way we start jboss is with the following:
















(full script is located here: http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-
cactus/integration/ant/src/scripts/j2ee13/).

I don't think it belongs to Maven. In the same way as I wouldn't put it under 
the Eclipse project umbrella. It is something more generic that can be used by 
Maven plugins, by Eclipse plugins, etc.

Putting it under a given tool's umbrella is dangerous as it may incite tying 
it to that tool thus making it not reusable by other projects. We've had this 
example with Ant and the Zip task for example. I would rather have seen the 
zip code as a commons project and then write a wrapper for Ant than the other 
way around.

sure. This is the direction.

I don't view this project as a Maven plugin, nor being Maven related. It is as 
much Centipede-related, Ant-related as it is Maven-related...

That said, I do agree that there will be a Maven plugin that *wraps* around 
this API to make it easily usable by Maven users.

I agree with all of these but only for plugins. I believe we should be *very* 
careful not to implement business logic in the plugin itself. In other word, 
the plugin should wrap existing frameworks.

For example, the checkstyle plugin wraps the checkstyle framework and that is 
good. Same with all the others. This provides reusability.

Things that could be separated from Maven (and this is the plan as defined by 
Jason) are for example:
- SCM code 
- API for downloading/uploading to a remote repository

What do yout think?

Thanks
