Hello Wayne
Thank you.
Wayne, I understand by far not all in maven , who does?
But thanks for the reply, it clears a bit of the clouds.
May I ask you a favor and lead me to a document describing how we can make
maven using our own ant 1.7.1,
as we had changes in ANT 1.7.1 specifically for OpenVMS, those catching
logical, and generating a temporary
file where all the many hundred arguments being passed today to JAVA / JVM are
stored in.
can we make maven use our ant by changing pom.xml or better have a more global
approach/setup such as in a settings.xml?
We need maven to execute our own ant 1.7.1 for now as this is the only way we
can pass 100+ arguments to JAVA/JVM on OpenVMS
The current version of ANT, which maven-2.2.1 uses by default, is not doing
this right for OpenVMS.
And hence we run into the error shown in the trace below, which is from a
AntSetup.xml calling the real build-wsdls.xml for test purpose.
It is even not executing correct just when just asked to execute an ordinary
bash shell ls command.
And to be positive: We would not take this challenge and work and work just to
get maven build maven and axis2 if we would not love maven!
But with openvms it is sometimes a night mare.
And it is a nightmare if maven developers use Unix scripts when they could use
JAVA statements for the same.
Today we have maven build 6/7 of apache-maven-2.2.1 from the bootstrap, and we
have maven-2.2.1 build axis2-1.6.0 to about 70%
And we see the day when we have a working environment on OpenVMS as many of you
have on Linux and Solaris and Windows;
And we are not from HP owning OpenVMS but are just ordinary customers counting
on open source communities!
And we do not yet have a nexus e all repository manager!
This will end in a next port to OpenVMS !!!
So we need to keep it simple and know how to deploy our own ANT into what you
call mavens cache.

Its not "using its own Ant." It simply does not use the Ant that you
previously installed but rather uses the Ant jars directly from its
cache.

It doesn't. This is a failure of your understanding of how Maven works.

You simply need to "release" your own version of Ant using a specific
version eg 1.8-JOSEPH and then specifically depend on that version in
your Maven pom. You probably want to lock down the version with
<version>[1.8-JOSEPH]</version> to prevent Maven from helpfully using
a different version. You could use a "real" version like 1.8.2 but
realize that **will** cause problems in the future if/when Ant
releases their own version 1.8.2 jars.
Deploy your Ant version to your Repo Manager (assuming you are using
Nexus et al) and you should be all set.
