Hi,
I build a automated setup for an Webapplication including GlassFish
configuration, DB setup and configuration and deployment of the
application itself.
I have choosen Ant as tool for this and I use Maven via the Ant Maven
Task to handle all dependency related stuff and it works great. The
solution combines the adavantages of Ant and Maven and turned out to be
very flexible. But you must know Ant before.
Bye
Oliver

Maybe this is too weird, but
Has anyone ever used Maven as an installation tool?
I've been thinking using Maven as a way to install and update software,
and before I actually go and experiment with the idea I was wondering if
other people have already thought of this. The idea would be that you
have a simple bootstrap installer that installs and/or updates Maven
first. Once Maven is installed/verified, you could then use it to pull
down the rest of the solution artifacts from the network and then
integrate them into the end solution. Over time you use the same
mechanism to assist in software upgrades.
I suspect some people already do something like this for enterprise web
applications, but I was thinking of something like a desktop application.
Cheers, Eric
