Re: [POLL] Why are you not able to use the most recent maven release?
I'm responsible for the technical architecture of many projects at my location. One project in particular (still in active development with code released to production) will likely never upgrade past 2.0.4 because of the changes to dependency resolution. Although these changes are a good thing, problems will not show up in a build, but in the runtime environment; the most problematic ones are class loading issues with WebSphere, but occasionally I have had to deal with "invalid class" errors because somehow commons-collections 2.0 made it into the war when the project was compiled and tested against 3.2. Anyway, I'm rambling. The project does not want to upgrade because we would likely need to stop all work for at least two days for a complete system test / regression test / fix pom cycle. After spending many weeks overall resolving issues that were deemed to be "maven brain damage" nobody wants the hassle. I am having success at convincing newer projects to start out using 2.0.8; so I am wondering how to easily maintain two maven versions for us developers on the technical architecture team -- is it as simple as swapping out MAVEN_HOME?

I wanted to upgrade to 2.0.8 some time ago but there were problems with the 2.3 surefire plugin at that time that are already resolved now. We currently do not have any issues with 2.0.7, that's why we didn't try to upgrade again. However, I just tested with 2.0.8 and a recent surefire plugin and the build works as expected. regards, - martin -- Martin Höller | [EMAIL PROTECTED] *x Software + Systeme | http://www.xss.co.at/ Karmarschgasse 51/2/20 | Tel: +43-1-6060114-30 A-1100 Vienna, Austria | Fax: +43-1-6060114-71 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Re: [POLL] Why are you not able to use the most recent maven release?
I'm sort of in the same boat, but for different reasons. The maven version is considered to be part of the configuration for each project, so projects are tied to whatever version of Maven was used at release time. Upgrades are considered to be changes to the build environment, which are out of scope in certain projects (small patch releases, for example). We play it safe in these cases because changes to Maven versions can cause build-related regressions. We also use Continuum as our CI environment, and Continuum is tied to whatever Maven version the Continuum unix account uses, which means that we are forced to use the same Maven version for all projects in Continuum. Upgrading the maven that Continuum uses forces all projects to upgrade Maven versions. Until I can figure out a way to get Continuum to run with different Maven versions, we're stuck with the current one. Either that, or I get the entire development team to upgrade simultaneously to a new Maven version. (Which might not really be such a big deal, IMO.) We're currently stuck on 2.0.4 but are starting to plan to upgrade to 2.0.9. 2.1 is not even on the radar yet.

2.0.7, with local patches.

RE: [POLL] Why are you not able to use the most recent maven release?
Yep, I did that - I personally have build our codeline with 2.0.5 - 8 and most recently, 2.1. The prab is when I upgrade myself and the build cluster, then when someone tries to build locally and they didn't upgrade and I get this angry horde with torches and pitchforks. -Original Message- From: Brian E.

I get the sense that lots of people are using older versions of Maven due to various regressions. As we get closer to 2.1 alpha, we need to ensure that we identify the regressions across the 2.0 line so that we can make sure they are fixed in 2.1 and so that users can upgrade to a recent 2.0.x before trying out 2.1.

Some time after 2.0.5, Maven seems to have lost the ability to deal with multiple repositories containing different versions of the same plugin. For example: * a 'third-party' repository with maven-whatever-plugin version 1.0 final * a 'sandbox' repository with maven-whatever-plugin version 2.0-alpha-1 I think someone brought this up on the dev list recently as a problem when trying to test a staged plugin release-- it would be the same situation, with the latest release of the plugin in the 'central' repo and the staged one in some other repo. -- Wendy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [POLL] Why are you not able to use the most recent maven release?
There are about 110 bugs slated in the "2.0.x" release category. As I watch 2.0.9 and 2.0.10 develop, I notice that issues from "2.0.x" are not touched. My recommendation -- and hope -- is that someone could schedule a 2.0.11 and 2.0.12 based on 25 (swag) issues respectively from that big list. Those are the issues, it appears, that are long-standing and have been reported early.

You should be ok to mix, as long as you dont get bitten by outstanding bugs. We moved to 2.0.7 to get the proxy:* stuff happening. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
