Re: Re: Maven Antrun Plugin - specific target call

2007-09-12 Thread Ritz, Martin
Indeed, Dave is right. 
I use the ant plugin only to perform tasks maven could'nt fulfill. 
Main works is done by maven but some things I couldn't find ways to perform 
with maven.

In my project I have integrated the izpack plugin with ant. 
I don't want to execute this task in every build. 
The next would be a deploy to the SAP Web Application Server for which I found 
only a way with ant. 
So this tasks should be executed for different builds and I don't want to 
execute this both togetheter in one build.
Profiles would be an option but it's not a really smart way... (because I have 
some profiles yet - i dont want to confuse my users to much)

The best way in my opinion would by (like Dave posted) mvn install 
-DantTarget=targetToCall or something similar.
So it would be self explanatory and good to remind.

Here i define different targets in the buildscript but I'm not able to call a 
specific one so if i run the ant-plugin i have to perform all targets which i

Re: Re: Maven Antrun Plugin - specific target call

2007-09-12 Thread Ritz, Martin

You are right the difference is not too big.
The members of my project team used ant for many years so they are used to say 
ant which target to call.
And the pom would be much bigger to set up with profiles (only for the 
ant-plugin) for every different build.

Because ant can inherit the classpaths/dependencies.  Presumably he *is*
utilizing the lifecycle, and attaching this ant config to one of the phases,
but has a need to call specific ant tasks only sometimes.  Was there
something I missed that made you think he was calling maven only to call
ant, and that he had no interest in utlizing the lifecycle?  I assumed this
was a somewhat special case and that it wasn't just using Maven to wrap an

call them directly with Ant. Then set Maven up so it calls the targets
in the build.xml file rather than embedding the Ant stuff in your pom.

 I have already two profiles...
 I dont want to blow up my pom too much!
 Is there no other easier way to call specific targets?

  Profiles will solve your problem.

   Hi,
  
   I have some ant targets integrated in my pom.xml.
   I declared an ant build script which is therefor called from
  maven.
   Now I dont want to perform every ant target on every build.
   Is there a way to call only specific ant-targets from the
  command line (maybe by calling the target or the id)?
