Hello fellow maven users, I'm stuck with a legacy application that is built with ant and uses lots of custom ant tasks. There is no time to create maven plugins for this legacy project instead.
Anyway.. The project I'm working on consists of two major artifacts. - one ear with the legacy application (client) - one ear with our new application (server) I would like to build them together with maven, so i created a POM-packaged parent and seperate child modules for the new stuff and one child module for the legacy application. I use the antrun plugin to build the legacy ear, which seems to work just fine.. The next step is to tell maven to recognize the ear that is produced by the ant build as a regular maven artifact and install it in the maven repository. Another possibility might be to produce the contents of the ear, but not yet package it, so maven can package it and install the ear artifact in the repo. Any ideas? I'm kind of in the dark here.. PS. Maven 2.0.4 Thanks! Jo
