Re: Setting custom varaibles
Here is a simple way to do that :
1 - You can set any property directly into the Maven command line :
mvn sonar:sonar -DsrcDirectory=/vol/myProject/src -DbinDirectory=...
2- You can retrieve those values into your pom.xml file :
${srcDirectory}
${binDirectory}

Re: Setting custom varaibles
Here's why: I'm setting up sonar - a tool for code quality analysis. The way sonar is run is: "mvn sonar:sonar" I'm using ANT to build my project. However, sonar requires a dummy pom.xml file to trick it into saying it's a maven project. Then, Sonar will go and descend into all the directories and complete static code analysis. In my case, I need only specific directories to be analysed by Sonar. Hence, I simply list these directories and feed it into the pom.xml file's property.

Re: Setting custom varaibles
Hi, First question: why do you need to do this? Maven defines strong conventions principles over config. So doing what you say seems quite uncommon. So you've got three solutions: * if the project can be cleanly refactored to be built, with clear deps and so on => the way to go * if those source directories comes from a special process (say generation), then maybe the way to go is more writing a maven plugin that will do what you need cleanly (writing a maven plugin is very simple). To help answer this question, I guess you'll have to explain your need a bit more. * combine ant-run plugin/buildhelper should help do the trick, but this would be like using ant to compile when developing under eclipse Cheers 2010/3/12 swaroopgr > > I'm need to use custom variables in maven.

Setting custom varaibles
I'm need to use custom variables in maven. Here's what I do: Run the "ls" command in the current directory. For each directory listed, I want to add the name in pom.xml's $DirectoryName property and run mvn. If there's a way to set name / value pairs during mvn invocation, that would be best. If not, what's the best way to do this? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Setting-custom-varaibles-tp27881131p27881131.html Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
