Hi Evgeny, Thank you.
I'm using Package "org.jacoco.agent.rt" and getting an instance of IAgent, the code is pretty similar to Sonar (actually I'm thinking if I should write a Sonar plugin instead). Thanks again guys Roberto On Wed, Nov 2, 2016, 8:27 AM Evgeny Mandrikov <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Roberto, > > I would say that you should do what is better suitable for you and your > project - either as main artifact, either as attached artifact with > classifier :) > > And I'm saying this, because: > As of today I would say that deployment of agent as attached artifact with > classifier was not a very good decision.
