I wasn't online yesterday, so maybe I'm too late to help here, but... I have a maven archetype (project template) for a webobjects application posted here,
https://github.com/nullterminated/woarchetypes (I actually planned to make one for d2w and frameworks too, but I haven't gotten around to it) Anyway, the generated project does not require a WO installation at all. It just finds all the jars needed in your maven repo. It doesn't require you edit maven settings.xml at all. It lists the wocommunity things in the pom.xml so it can find those. You just create a project with it, and it works. It even has a profile where you can build a woapp in a docker container and push the image to AWS ECR if you're into that sort of thing. The only fiddly bits with that are 1) you need docker set up so you can use it without sudo, and 2) you have aws-cli installed and set up so you can push the image to ecr when given the commented properties in the pom.xml file. https://github.com/nullterminated/woarchetypes/blob/master/webobjects-app/src/main/resources/archetype-resources/pom.xml I should probably update it to Java 21 too, it's still on 17. It's based on that wodocker thing I was telling you about a while ago. It has ECR now and I fixed the ENTRYPOINT in the dockerfile so the woapp can run shutdown hooks properly when the container is killed. I think the healthcheck is new since then too, but that doesn't really do anything but hit /. ________________________________ From: Aaron Rosenzweig via Webobjects-dev <webobjects-dev@lists.apple.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 30, 2024 10:41 AM To: WebObjects-Dev List <webobjects-dev@lists.apple.com> Subject: Advisory: Eclipse bundless builds + maven = no está bien Do you know there is a concept of “bundless builds” ? It works with ANT but not with Maven. If you try to use bundless builds with Maven you’ll get runtime errors when launching via Eclipse related to “null” for "NSProperties._mainBundleName()” I've been using Eclipse bundless builds for a very long time. It's an option in Eclipse WOLips (I'll tell you where in a moment). I think once upon a time, in Ant/Eclipse, it used to build .woa bundles and launch from that. It was ok but sometimes it would get sort of stuck and you'd have to manually delete the .woa to get a true build and it was a little slow to package up the .woa before launch. Other than those niggling issues, it was fine. But those issues were enough to bother some people in the WO community to question why we even needed a .woa bundle and if we could launch without it. I don't even know how that works but it was an option to go with a bundless build and that seemed to be more reliable, faster to launch, etc. Turns out, now with Maven, you cannot use bundless builds! If you do, you won't see any errors/problems (no red) in Eclipse but you'll get runtime errors when you launch. Most notable is a null mainBundleName. It now seems so obvious, I don't have a bundle name because I don't have a bundle (you can add "dumb ass" if you want). But I didn't need one for ANT and this was not at all obvious to me. It's one of those settings you make in your Eclipse workspace and forget about it. In Eclipse, if you go to "Preferences" in the top menu bar (I think it is OS specific, maybe under "Help" or "Eclipse") you get preferences for he entire workspace: 1. There you can open the triangle for "WOLips" 2. Now choose "Build" and you'll see many checkboxes. 3. Maven requires you to have this box checked "Generate bundles" 4. Restart Eclipse then clean the workspace, etc. When you do this, now inside the "target" folder where Maven puts compiled java class files, it now makes a .woa bundle and obviously uses that during launch from inside Eclipse. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
