-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [merlin] meta migration strategy Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2003 01:19:47 +0200 From: Stephen McConnell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: Avalon Developers List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Avalon Dev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I've completed the re-shuffling of the Merlin Meta content into a separate sandbox project and now the Merlin build has been restructured to use Avalon Meta instead of Merlin Meta (at the meta-info level). There is a direct and immediate impact of this change ...
************************************************** * your existing @avalon.meta.* tags are broken. * **************************************************
To correct this situation, you need to:
1. replace @avalon.meta.* with @avalon.* 2. replace the following definitions
Old style: ----------
@avalon.meta.version 1.0 @avalon.meta.name fred @avalon.meta.lifestyle singleton
New style: ----------
@avalon.type version="1.0" name="fred" lifestyle="singleton"
Installation Notes:
-------------------
Finally, you will need to install the avalon meta plugin into you Maven plugin directory. If you have already checked out the sandbox/meta package, then the plugin will be automatically installed as a result of invoking maven. If not, you can download and install the latest version of the plugin from this link:
http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/avalon-meta/
The file to download is:
avalon-meta-plugin-1.0-RC1.jar
To use the plugin inside Maven, you should declare a pre or postGoal inside you maven.xml file such as the following:
<project>
<postGoal name="java:compile">
<attainGoal name="avalon:meta"/>
</postGoal>
</project>This will result in the automated generation of meta-info descriptors for your components following a successful compilation.
Cheers, Steve.
