I don't use Eclipse. I ran the idea plugin and it did create a project,
but it generated a single module project which was not what I expected.
You have some experience using maven1, maybe you could help out on the
assembly part ? It should be fairly straightforward to come up with a
descriptor, give or take a few bugs along the way. Basically the
assembly descriptor builds a full binary distribution of a project, you
just tell it which format and what should go in it.
Are you talking about creating the pom.xml for each project or is this
some other descriptor?
A pom.xml is required in every in any case. Probably we will need more at the
beginning (block.xml) as I don't see a useful way to get the deployment
information that is covered by block.xml into pom.xml. I know of the
"properties" part of poms but this scatters information across different locations.
I will get in contact with the Maven folks if there is a chance of adding a
property element to the dependency element as it was possible in Maven 1.x
I stop the discussion at this point as working code will make further
discussions less academic ;-)
