maven maven maven, that is if all developers all over the world knows what maven is. Ant was what i first knew until i started hearing maven and infact it was mainly because of wicket that i learnt maven early before a netbeans module came out.
so really not all developers will have some patience to first google maven fundamentals which is why i believe in: 1. Step 1, Install Your IDE (Everybody knows that) 2. Step 2, Install This Plugin (IDEs make that simple) 3. Step 3, Create a new Wicket Project and then BOOM it works without even a line of code yet (as much as i hated SWT, i learnt it this way) And lets remember the success of the ASP.NET family, you install Visual Studio and then BOOM your sample project is ready. Then you see this 2 days old developer feeling like he can code every website. that "feeling" is the success of every developer tool and dont let us forget that The Java community has a plethora of tools but as newer developers come on board, they need a clean entrance and maven is not what you learn at the early stage of your developer career (even though its simple to use, infact simpler than i thought cuz i hated Ant) My take, While off course maven is still the used tool, but the community should bring the useful IDE plugins to the forefront for starters Thanks On 9/11/07, Gerolf Seitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On 9/10/07, Martijn Dashorst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > I haven't used an Eclipse plugin for maven since the command line > > version works really well and my previous experiences with mevenide > > were less than ok (talking about 2 years ago!) > > > > Martijn > > > > there seem to be a new maven-eclipse-integration plugin in town: > http://code.google.com/p/q4e/ > it's supposed to be part of the eclipse foundation. > i haven't tried it out yet, but as i didn't really like m2eclipse, i will > definitely give it a shot. > > gerolf > > -- > > Buy Wicket in Action: http://manning.com/dashorst > > Apache Wicket 1.3.0-beta3 is released > > Get it now: http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/wicket/1.3.0-beta3/ > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > >
