Hi Chris,
when the external build.xml creates a JAR you can always use the
maven-install/deploy-plugin to upload the JAR into the repository (even
with providing a custom pom.xml)

Hi Siegfried,
Thanks for the response. The build.xml in question is already being used by
another project as part of their standard build process. As such it compiles
all the code for their jar and produces this jar as output. It is not
producing sources.
So yes it is creating a jar, but I think this isn't the one I want to install.
It seems like I should be repackaging their compilation results as a normal
maven jar (ie with pom.xml, pom.properties, etc.). Is this not the correct
view?
The point of this integration from my perspective is actually to get their
JAR in my repo with associated project info. Since modifying their build
system is not an option, and I don't want to create a parallel build system,
I suppose their ant build system is in charge. I just want to 'wrap' it with
my maven build system, so that my build system runs smoothly.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,
what is your build.xml actually doing?! Is it creating sources than this
is supported by the maven-antrun-plugin. If it is creating a JAR you
might be able to upload it to your repo. So the main question is which
build system is in charge ....

Hi All
I am trying to integrate my maven 2.0 oriented build system with another
project which uses ant. So I thought to use the maven-antrun-plugin to
execute an ant task during the compile phase, and thus take advantage of
the existing build.xml file.
The problems come at jar creation time. My jar is empty because no
content was marked for inclusion, and the empty jar ends up under target,
along with all the results from the ant build.
How can I get the ant produced content in my maven produced jar? Is it a
problem at jar creation time for Maven to be writing to the same target
directory?
And finally, Is there better documentation regarding how to integrate
legacy ant builds into a Maven 2.0 build system than can be found at:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/introduction.html
Cheers,
Chris
