running an antrun task alone -- or pulling a maven classpath from the pom?

2006-01-19 Thread Eric Biesterfeld
So, I have my maven classpath all set up, everything's running quite nicely. (and once this release is out and I'm settled down in a few projects I'll try to write up what we did to get our multi-product, multimodule ant project building under Maven 2...) However, I'm trying to run TestNG and I'm

I think the bigger question is... why? Why do they want to abandon Maven? What isn't your build system doing to meet your needs? Further, as more and more hacks are made to a build system over three years, any system can seem crufty and inappropriate, when the problem is that noone thought

antrun and maven.dependency.classpath

2005-12-19 Thread Eric Biesterfeld
I'm currently trying to move away from a clunky ant-based database creation system to a transitory hybrid system using Maven as I refactor the database creation scripts. As one portion of the database build process requires two java classes that have dependencies, I thought I would use the antrun

First, have you checked http://ibiblio.org/maven2 to see if it has been created there? If not, we currently place our pre-maven projects in a repository we've created. http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-repositories.html has some information about creating your own

2005-11-21 Thread Eric Biesterfeld
I think there's something more wrong if a jar says it has dependencies and it doesn't actually need them. Are you sure you don't need these? If so, consider using your own repository before ibiblio and strip these of their dependencies. On 11/21/05, Eric Jacob [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi John,

According to the plugin matrix (http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Maven+Plugin+Matrix) it hasn't been updated yet, and is listed as low priority. We're going to need it ourselves, so I may just take the time to get some basic functionality. On 10/4/05, Frank Zhao [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

I'm doing some research on migrating to Maven from our ant project structure, or just adding Ivy. The problem comes that I've never seen a project in Maven such as ours. We have a product for 10 clients, with a potential client base of about 20. Unfortunately, while it uses a base API, each
