Newbe: Maven vs AntHill
I am new to Maven. Can anyone tell me how Maven compares to AntHill OS and/or AntHill Pro? Thanks, David Robison -- David R Robison Open Roads Consulting, Inc. 708 S.

Thanks, David Robison No relationship other than one can schedule Maven based builds using Anthill. Maven is a build tool that extends the capabilities of Ant in new and interesting ways. Anthill is build scheduling tool. One uses Anthill to fetch changed sources from a source repository and initiate builds. Anthill OS can be tricked into running Maven based builds by using a simple Ant script that launches Maven. Anthill Pro can, I believe, invoke Maven directly. I am using Anthill OS to run my Maven based builds. -- Erik Husby Team Lead for Software Quality Automation Broad Institute Rm. 2192 320 Charles St Cambridge, MA 02141-2023 mobile: 781.354.6669, office: 617.258.9227, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Newbe: Maven vs AntHill
scm:update-project will fetch changed source from CVS. So I would imagine you could put that into a build. We use Cruise Control here and we get maven do do all the heavy lifting. CC fetches one file (project.xml) and checks the repository for changes; if it finds them maven updates the project and builds it. -Original Message- From: David R Robison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 05 April 2004 18:05 To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: Newbe: Maven vs AntHill Can Maven fetch changed sources from a source repository during a build?

David R Robison [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Can Maven fetch changed sources from a source repository during a build? David You could definitely make Maven do this. However, if you are wanting to use Maven with Anthill, you wouldn't want to do that. The way Anthill works is to pull everything out of the repository that you are going to build (either the tip of HEAD or branch, or a given tag), and then run the build on that. If you are using Anthill, you wouldn't want your build scripts to have anything to do with pulling stuff out of the repository - let Anthill do that for you before it invokes the build. Hope this helps, Chad - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
