The artifacts are already downloadable from the m2 repository. For example, the wsdl-first SA is available at http://people.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository/org/apache/servicemix/samples/wsdl-first/wsdl-first-sa/3.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT/wsdl-first-sa-3.0-incubating-20060823.104511-6.zip
I guess we could put in the README.txt an alternative way to deploy the samples by downloading manually the SA and copy it along with the needed components to the deploy/install dir. Jeppe, do you think it would help ? On 8/24/06, James Strachan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
We could use maven to automatically generate some Ant build files for folks who are maven averse. Though there is such rich tooling support now in Maven for working with JBI (e.g. creating JBI archetypes, creating JBI deployment units) so anyone working with ServiceMix should try to use Maven as the build/deploy tool (unless using the Eclipse tooling which is using Maven internally anyway ;-). Maybe if the examples were just downloadable as pre-built artifacts you'd not have to use Maven to run the examples, you could just drop them into a running server?
