1. Re: Maven release artifacts
heiko.braun Apr 3, 2008 5:42 AM (in response to heiko.braun)This leads to the question if we want to migrate the build to maven or simply add maven release capabilities to it, which is probably easier but may cause issue in the long run, when more and more project migrate. Maybe there is a partly solution? Like brining in Ivy for dependency management? Basically I see the only benefit I see is leveraging maven repositories. We need to be able to publish to and retrieve from a maven repository.

I'm not a Maven fan and I don't believe in Maven + AS future, see:
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4141238#4141238
So I'm saying don't migrate to maven builds instead of ant builds. -
3. Re: Maven release artifacts
heiko.braun Apr 3, 2008 6:10 AM (in response to heiko.braun)If maven will oppose so many problem it will render itself useless anyway. But until then we have to face it: AS has chosen to use maven and we need to deal with integration. Which basically means leveraging the maven repositories.
I am looking for a smart way to hook into that without having to migrate our build completely. -

I agree. We have to deal with the integration issue. I would do it in the way we do it now in our spy, just release it to local maven repository and force developer to commit it there manually ;) -

Just wanted to add that this is currently the only way to deploy to the maven releases repository (i.e. deploy locally and then commit to svn).
This page has some information about how to commit to the maven repository (http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=MavenReleaseRepository)
Please use the maven deploy plugin or the ant tasks when deploying to the repository, so that the correct metadata is generated.
