I am trying to use the SCM plugin to checkout the source codes from CVS and
the changelog plugin to generate the change log report. I noticed that
there is a difference between the SCM checkout directory and the base
directory for Changelog. The SCM checkout directory is default to
${basedir}/checkout, while the Changelog always refers to the ${basedir} as
the base directory. Moreover, when the source codes are checked out using
SCM, a subdirectory of the module name is always created under the checkout
directory.
Does anyone know how I can resolve such difference?
Some other things I noticed about the SCM plugin:
1. The SCM plugin uses the repository definition in the POM to extract the
SCM module name. So the suggested property 'maven.scm.cvs.module' is
redundant.
2. The SCM plugin fails when the module name contains space characters.
This happens because I am using WSAD as my IDE, and by default, the source
codes are created under the 'Java Source' directory. A simple patch that I
had applied is to put single quote around the package name, like this:
<ant:cvs command="checkout ${maven.scm.cvs.checkout.flags}" quiet="
${maven.scm.cvs.quiet}" cvsRsh="${maven.scm.cvs.rsh}" cvsRoot="
${maven.scm.cvs.root}" dest="${maven.scm.checkout.dir}" package="'
${maven.scm.cvs.module}'" tag="${maven.scm.cvs.sticky.tag}" failonerror="
true"/>
Anyone has any better solution?
The version of Maven I am using is 1.0-rc2.
