This is a great example of a maven advantage. Maven defines (universally) a set of life cycle goals. The most commonly used are test, compile, package, and deploy (to a repository). All dependency resolution is done automagically with nice caching, signature checking and so on. The advantage he

I also am in favour of Maven integration. That would also correct the issue where the pom.xml file was not published along with the jar file to the maven repository for jempbox. Y. Life is good! 2009/9/11 Andreas Lehmkühler > Hi, > > I know maven a little and ant a little bit more, but I guess

Given that PDFBox now already downloads dependencies from the net, one of my biggest points against Maven/Ivy is already moot. Switching to Maven now is not a big deal anymore. I still don't like builds that rely on possibly multiple external servers (besides the ASF's SVN server) to be online at t
