Here's the status of the assembly plugin. The geronimo-assembly-plugin is ready and is undergoing tests. It has only 1 goal, i.e., the "installConfig" goal. This goal runs thro' the dependency list in the pom.xml and installs all dependencies of type "car". I have attached a patch of this plugin for those wishing to play with it.
The maven-assembly-plugin is what will be used to do the bulk of the assembly. This plugin had to be patched to meet our requirements. Special thanks to Jesse McConnel and John Casey from maven for answering my myriad questions and agreeing to apply the patch to the assembly plugin. The last remaining thing is our (in)ability to execute the maven-assembly-plugin twice. I am trying to get this resolved. Here's the thread for those wishing to follow - http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg58756.html Cheers Prasad On 6/26/06, David Jencks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Although there are still some problems (such as not running all the tests) I think we have pretty much all of the build working in m2 except for the assembly stage, due to the lack of an m2 assembly plugin. I'm not sure of the status of such a plugin, but I'd like to suggest that we try to make the build be m2-only except for assembly, and m1 for the assembly step until a suitable plugin exists. Comments? Objections? thanks david jencks
