Chris Male commented on LUCENE-2657:
------------------------------------
bq. If nothing else, it is abundantly clear that there are more than a couple
of Lucene/Solr developers that don't want to put in any effort for Maven's sake.
If developers are willing to add the dependency jar and lines to the ant file
but not add the 5 lines to the pom, then I'm not sure any of these attempts are
really going to succeed. Sure many developers don't like maven, but I haven't
seen any straight out refuse to use it yet (unless I misread the large email
thread), they are just demanding ease of use.
My concern here is this process is going in the opposite direction by making it
vastly more complicated. What your proposing sounds like a great app
independent of Lucene - a way to convert from an ant build system to a maven
one, but I'm unsure its something that should be part of a build process
instead of a once off thing. Certainly when we are trying to simplify said
build process.

> Key: LUCENE-2657
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2657
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build
> Reporter: Steven Rowe
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.1, 4.0
>
>
> Lucene and Solr modules' POM templates are manually maintained, and so are
> not always in sync with the dependencies used by the Ant build.
> It should be possible to auto-generate POM templates using build tools
> extending Ant's
> [BuildListener|http://api.dpml.net/ant/1.6.5/org/apache/tools/ant/BuildListener.html]
> interface, similarly to how the
> [ant2ide|http://gleamynode.net/articles/2234/] project generates eclipse
> project files.
