Status of Generate a sub module from an archetype

2009-08-04 Thread Murali Pottlapelli


Hi All,
I see TBD next to Generate a sub module from an archetype at 
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-archetype-plugin. Is TBD for 
implementation or documentation?


Is it possible to control the files created in a sub-module? Is it also 
possible to sync the content in the files based on meta-data (generated 
property files)? Is there any example archetype to demonstrate the 
functionality?


How to invoke archetype plug-in from a program? Is it possible to invoke 
from another plug-in? example snippet would help


I have searched in glassfish users group, but did not find any help on 
archetype


Regards
Murali

How invoke itblast plugin two times for two different databases?

2009-08-04 Thread Nafter


When I make a build at the end the maven-itblast-plugin is used to kick off
Junit tests.
This is working just fine.

However I would like to run the same set of JUnit tests against an other db
vendor as well.
In fact the Junit tests should be executed on a Oracle database but also on
a SQL server database.

At the moment I'm trying to invoke the maven-itblast-plugin two times, but
this is only executed once.

I call the build by passing the following profile options:

-e clean install -Drun_tests_oracle -Drun_tests_sqlserver


Does somebody know how to really invoke the Unittests twice using the
maven-itblast-plugin?



See below how the -Drun_tests_oracle -Drun_tests_sqlserver are being
configured.

filePermissions ignored during site-deploy with SCP

2009-08-04 Thread JeremieB

Hi,

I'm quite new to Maven and facing an issue I could not workaround.

I'm using Maven 2.2.0, and using site-deploy to deploy my generated site to
a webserver, through scp.

Here are the settings server I use :
server
idGGS-website/id
usernamemylogin/username
privateKeyD:\Documents and Settings\mylogin\.ssh\id_rsa/privateKey
filePermissions777/filePermissions
directoryPermissions777/directoryPermissions
/server

My distribution management section :
site
idGGS-website/id
nameSite webserver for GGS projects/name

urlscp://${site.host}/opt/apache2/htdocs/projects/${project.groupId}/url
/site

Deployment works well, except that whatever I put in filePermissions or
directoryPermissions, my files get created with permissions 644 on the
webserver.
I tried to use wagon-ssh in version 1.0-beta-6 as I saw issues close to
mine, but it did not correct the issue.

In logs following line confirm rights are set that do not match what I want
:
Executing command: chmod -Rf g+w,a+rX /opt/apache2/htdocs/projects/...

This is blocking issue for me, as it prevents anyone else from publishing
the same website again, as there is no common group assigned on the
webserver (and I can't change that).

I really don't know how to investigate ... How can I check what wagon
version is used for SCP ? I see nothing else in logs, and although I added
extension for 1.0-beta-6, still some dependencies on 1.0-beta-2 are
retrieved and I'm quite confused.

Thanks for help,
Jeremie

The permission settings in server are not used anymore since maven 2.1 [1]. The 
chmod command is optional and configurable in the current site-plugin-2.1-SNAPSHOT 
[2], you can test it eg like



chmodModeg+w,a+rX/chmodMode

Note however that there are some pitholes [3].

adjust some bits.

Hope this helps,

 2. Copy the rest of the compile-scope dependencies to the main /lib

 Example output:
 
 /target
/lib
  /jetty
(jetty and transitives go here, groupid=org.mortbay.jetty)
  /metro
(glassfish and transitives go here, groupid=com.sun.xml.ws)
commons-collections.jar
commons-logging.jar
etc. -- rest of compile-scope dependencies here
 
 I don't want to have to specify every artifact and its version in the 
 configuration, because all that's already in the dependencies section 
 of the pom.

Re: Surefire: How to specify jar class loading order?

2009-08-04 Thread David Hoffer

Any thoughts on how I should resolve this?  Here are some options I thought
of.

1. Does the surefire plugin allow jar order to be specified via
configuration?

2. Put a copy of the overrides in each artifact under test so they always
endup in the classes folder.

3. Apply the overrides to the artifact being overridden.  I could create yet
another child module that patches the overridden artifact so I endup with a
patched version.  This might be the cleanest solution as it removes any
overrides from being in the runtime classpath, however I really don't need
this solution as in wars, etc I can control the ordering of the jar loading.

4. ??

combining javadoc versus shade

2009-08-04 Thread Benson Margulies

I have a multi-module top-level project. The first set of modules
build ordinary JAR artifacts, and each has some javadoc with it.

The next module just runs maven-shade-plugin to combine then into a shaded jar.

Finally, there's a module to build a release package.

I am not seeing how to organize the aggregation of the javadoc. The
shade project is not itself an 'aggregator' project, and adding an
execution of javadoc:aggregate doesn't seem to do anything.

Do I have to unpack the javadoc artifacts of the contributors with the
dependency plugin to accomplish the task at hand?

maven eclipse plugin and wtp

2009-08-04 Thread massive.boisson


Hi, I have a maven project (that is web project by its nature) and I want to
run it in eclipse as WTP project.

I found command (on
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-eclipse-plugin/wtp.html):
mvn -Dwtpversion=R7 eclipse:eclipse
Where wtpversion can be R7, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 or none (default).


As current wtp version is 3.1, can I use 
mvn -Dwtpversion=3.1 eclipse:eclipse


Or is there a new or prefered way to do this?


Thanks a lot

When you specify the WTP version, you are telling the plugin which
type of configuration to generate. Eclipse has the ability to import
from older versions, so even though WTP version 2.0 is from '08, it
shouldn't hurt to use 2.0, then let eclipse import it.

At the same time, when using the eclipse plugin, you should ask
yourself which you want to depend on more, eclipse or maven? Eclipse
and maven both handle many similar tasks, but if you use the eclipse
functionality, you are locked into eclipse... There are many eclipse
tools that are helpful, but for building and testing, I prefer to
leave it to maven. That being the case, what does WTP give you that is
most important? IMO, it's the ability to run your web-app right from
the IDE... You can install a tomcat runtime right in WTP and tell
eclipse to run your web-app in it. If this is the feature you are
looking for, then I would say that you could do one better and use the
maven-tomcat-plugin to get the same functionality.

Instead of using the maven-eclipse-plugin to generate eclipse
configuration files, try using the m2eclipse eclipse plugin to have
eclipse become more maven-aware. Then, you can create an eclipse run
configuration that launches 'mvn tomcat:run'. You will have the
ability to debug your web-app using the eclipse debugger. In addition,
you will also have the nifty pom editory that comes with m2eclipse.
This will leave you with a project that is more portable across IDEs,
in case someone on your team later decides to use something other than
eclipse. In addition, your build/test process can be run in a CI
environment like hudson.

Re: combining javadoc versus shade

2009-08-04 Thread Daniel Kulp


I talked to Benson on IRC   The solution (more like hack) that CXF uses 
to accomplish this is to use dependency plugin to unpack the source jars for 
everything being shaded and re-run the javadoc plugin on that unpacked source.  
 
It's a complete hack, but it at least works for what we needed it for.

and maven both handle many similar tasks, but if you use the eclipse
functionality, you are locked into eclipse... There are many eclipse
tools that are helpful, but for building and testing, I prefer to
leave it to maven. That being the case, what does WTP give you that is
most important? IMO, it's the ability to run your web-app right from
the IDE... You can install a tomcat runtime right in WTP and tell
eclipse to run your web-app in it. If this is the feature you are
looking for, then I would say that you could do one better and use the
maven-tomcat-plugin to get the same functionality.

Instead of using the maven-eclipse-plugin to generate eclipse
configuration files, try using the m2eclipse eclipse plugin to have
eclipse become more maven-aware. Then, you can create an eclipse run
configuration that launches 'mvn tomcat:run'. You will have the
ability to debug your web-app using the eclipse debugger. In addition,
you will also have the nifty pom editory that comes with m2eclipse.
This will leave you with a project that is more portable across IDEs,
in case someone on your team later decides to use something other than
eclipse. In addition, your build/test process can be run in a CI
environment like hudson.

DefaultArtifact.getSelectedVersion throws N.P.E

2009-08-04 Thread Nord, James

WIth Maven 2.2.0 i'm getting an N.P.E from DefaultArtifact when calling
getSelectedVersion on a dependency.
 
This is in a multimodule project - and several modules build fine before
I hit the one that constantly failes.
 
[INFO] java.lang.NullPointerException
[INFO]  at
org.apache.maven.artifact.DefaultArtifact.getSelectedVersion(DefaultArti
fact.java:621)
[INFO]  at
com.nds.cab.build.enforcer.EngineeringReleaseRule.execute(EngineeringRel
easeRule.java:69)

85)
[INFO]  at
org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultPluginManager.executeMojo(DefaultPluginMa
nager.java:483)

The code in question (below) is an enforcer rule that does the following
- which looks ok to me.
 
Looking at the DefaultArtifact code there is the following comment
513
http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.0/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/Defaul
tArtifact.html#513  // I am assuming this is happening as a
result of the MNG-1577 work, but somehow the value
514
http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.0/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/Defaul
tArtifact.html#514  // of versionRange just goes null or is not
set. But this is happeningin Yoko and the value is
515
http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.0/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/Defaul
tArtifact.html#515  // set when attaching the JAR and not set
when attaching the test JAR.
516
http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.0/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/Defaul
tArtifact.html#516  if ( versionRange == null )
517
http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.0/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/Defaul
tArtifact.html#517  {
518
http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.0/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/Defaul
tArtifact.html#518  versionRange =
VersionRange.createFromVersion( version );
519
http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.0/xref/org/apache/maven/artifact/Defaul
tArtifact.html#519  }

However - the defaultArtifactHandler itself doesn't call getVersionRange
but uses the field diretly, which to me seems a little strange.

public void execute(EnforcerRuleHelper helper) throws
EnforcerRuleException {

   // the following results in a bogus POM during some phases //
MavenProject project = (MavenProject) helper.evaluate( ${project} );
MavenSession session = (MavenSession) helper.evaluate(${session});
MavenProject project = session.getCurrentProject(); Properties props =
session.getExecutionProperties(); if
(props.containsKey(skipEngineeringReleaseRule)) { log.warn(Skipping
EngineeringReleaseRule (user requested)); } else if (
project.getArtifact().isSnapshot() ) { // snapshots can contain
engineering versions } else if
(isEngineeringVersion(project.getArtifact().getSelectedVersion())) { //
project is an engineering version so engineering versions are allowed! }
else { // we are a release version so check the dependencies for any
engineering release. log.info(Checking for engineering dependencies);
Set dependencies = project.getArtifacts(); 66: Iterator i =
dependencies.iterator(); 67: while (i.hasNext()) { 68: Artifact artifact
= (Artifact) i.next(); 69:if
(isEngineeringVersion(artifact.getSelectedVersion())) { 70: //
Engineering releases only come from NDS! 71: if
(artifact.getGroupId().startsWith(com.mycorp)) { throw new
EnforcerRuleException(ERROR_MSG); } } } } 
Am i doing somehting I'm not supposed to?  the quick and dirty is for me
to add a call to getVersionRange() before getSelectedVersion() but this
is masking the issue not nescesarily fixing it and if something deep
down is broken it doesn't leave me with a warm fuzzy feeling.

How to create patched artifact?

2009-08-04 Thread David Hoffer

What is the maven way of creating a patched jar?

I have a case where I need to apply some overrides to a binary jar which is
one of my dependencies.  I have the source code for the overrides.  So I
could create a child module with the source and the one dependency that
needs the overrides applied.  What maven plugin would I use to extract the
class files from the dependency, combine with the new generated classes from
source, and then re-jar?  The final artifact would have a new name, i.e.
_patched, so as to not get confused with the original.  How can I then stop
the transitive dependency on the original jar?  I would want the dependency
to be on the new patched version only.

What's the maven way of doing this sort of thing?

1. Create a project with a new groupId, artifactId, and version.

2.  Publish this third-party binary to a repository manager - you can
use one of the various repository managers that allow you to manually
upload an artifact.   (Me?  I'd recommend Nexus).

3. Use the dependency plugin to unpack the artifact to your project's
target/classes.   Bind the unpack goal to generate-sources or
generate-resources so that the download and unpack.

Unpack Mojo: 
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/examples/unpacking-artifacts.html
Intro to Lifecycle:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html

4. Package, publish your new patched artifact to a repository manager
(under a new groupId, artifactId, version).

The key here is that you create a project that patches the original
artifact and then publishes it under a different GAV coordinate.   I
would not recommend patching the JAR and then writing it back to the
repository manager under the same GAV coordinate: 1. You are going to
have a GAV collision, and 2. It makes it difficult to update to a new
version of this binary dependency.

 What's the maven way of doing this sort of thing?


Good luck.

Cross-project dependencies

2009-08-04 Thread Lewis, Eric

Hi

I have a problem, which might be solved using Maven's make-like reactor mode - 
but I'm not sure if it is!

Consider the following projects/modules

Project A
+--- Module A1
+--- Module A2
Project B
+--- Module B1
+--- Module B2

Now, if A1 depends on B1, but B2 depends on A2, it's impossible to build a 
refactoring done in the two projects.
Let's say I changed something in A1 and B2, then neither Project A nor Project 
B will build, since they're caught in a kind of deadlock.
I will have to build and deploy some modules by hand until the whole build 
works (talking of snapshots here, of course).

Can the make-like reactor mode help me?

As you can tell, I'm a bit confused  ;-)
Thanks for any hints!

Best regards,
Eric

Re: filePermissions ignored during site-deploy with SCP

Hi and thanks for reply,

I'm trying to test this but fail since now.

I added repository for apache snapshots in my archiva proxy connectors list,
but now it seems nothing works anymore ...

My build downloads .pom and metadata for maven-site-plugin 2.1-SNAPSHOT, but
it's not able to download the jar in any way.
Installing manually the .jar seem to make things progress, but still my
build is not able to download any SNAPSHOT dependency of site-plugin from my
archiva server. Logs show only a bunch of Read time out.

I really do not understand a thing of what's happening :/

Re: Need to compile apach eusing maven

2009-08-04 Thread Wayne Fay

 We had an idea like to compile and build the openssl, apache using maven
 pom.xml
 Is it possible to compile and build the apache, openssl using pom.xml
 We need to invoke the apache build procedure using pom.xml.

This is a good question for the Apache HTTP Server email list, not the

Filtering assembly, but with command line value

2009-08-04 Thread David Weintraub

We have a single file called aim_version.properties. In it is a string
@VERSION@ which is replaced with a property that I get from the command
line. I am building an assembly, and I need to change the @VERSION@ string
with a value of a property that I either get from the command line, or I get
as the default property in the pom.xml.

I looked up the assembly descriptor, and it tells me how to do filtering via
an already built properties file, but I don't want to do that. Instead, I
simply want to take the value of the property and filter this one file with
that property.

How do I do that while I build the assembly? I know how to specify this one
file when building the assembly, and I see how to do the filtering if the
value I want is in a properties file, but I need to take the value off the
command line.

Re: Copy groups of dependencies with dependency plugin

Thanks. This almost works. I had to add 
includeScopecompile/includeScope to the third execution.


Now a new problem: it copies over the dependencies with a particular 
groupId, but not the transitive dependencies. I guess what I really want 
is jetty plus everything it depends on to go in a directory. Possible 
without having to list every transitive dependency explicitly?

How to delete a directory?

I'm using maven-dependency-plugin to make a custom directory of 
dependencies. The trouble is that I can't find a way to delete the 
outputDirectory before the plugin runs so I can be sure there aren't any 
old files left over in it.


I tried to use maven-clean-plugin to do it, but it insists on deleting 
the entire /target directory, which I don't want. It looks like there is 
an excludeDefaultDirectories option available on the command line, but 
putting excludeDefaultDirectoriestrue/excludeDefaultDirectories in

install isn't a goal in this case, it is a phase. When you run
install, you are asking Maven to walk through the entire lifecycle
(except the deploy phase). Instead of trying to test with the
install phase, run mvn generate-sources then run mvn compile.
Also use the -X flag to get more output.

Take a look at the list of phases here:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html

Since the generate-sources phase is before compile shouldn't the compile
have over written the unpack? I'm confused.

Do you have source in src/main/java? What is your project's packaging?
