For your exact situation, I suppose the maven-gae-plugin (https://github.com/maven-gae-plugin/maven-gae-plugin ) will solve your problem.

For other situations where there's no maven plugin to do what whas done in an ant task, there's a maven-antrun-plugin (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/ ) which allows you to run ant task within the maven build process.

Hi Ian,

Thanks for sharing !

May I ask you why you avoid Maven ?
With Maven (and similar dependency management tools) I just change X.Y.Z
to
X.Y.Z+1 in one place and continue working without bothering with all these
steps.
1.  The documentation for Google App Engine for Java (GAE/J) specifies
certain Ant scripts for doing useful things such as application building and
DataNucleus JDO datastore code "enhancement", so I do not want to drop Ant.

2.  I know almost nothing above Maven, except that this seems to be simple
to use with little configuration required to obtain the .jar (and source?)
files needed (and perhaps build an application too?).

3.  I do not know if Maven and Ant are incompatible, although I feel that
they are.

To conclude, I feel that Maven is good and the "modern, sensible way to go",
but for now I'll stick to Ant, in order to avoid the possible requirement to
change all my GAE/J Ant scripts to Maven things.

I'm happy to be told that I am wrong in all this!

I had to change my procedure for Wicket 6 to include the use of Maven.org,
in order to obtain source code files which I could no longer find in the
download mirrors. I shall be happy to update this procedure in the future to
reflect future changes or improvements if you want me to (just let me know
where it resides (if you want to use it)), even though I guess that Maven is
more the future than Ant is.


Ian
