JBossDeveloper

I am not aware of any more talks. I had started to investigate further but had some issues with management and halted all development.

I may resume. Last I talked with the Maven folks it sounded like there were going to be some major changes so I will probably wait until that has been settled. I have not checked up with them in weeks so I have no idea what is going on, or what the state of Maven is.

Just one comment from a Maven newbie ...

The dependencies thing, where Maven downloads
jars required for the build, is quite cool, in a way,
but I discovered a problem recently building another
project, where one of the jars listed, with a version
number, didn't exist anymore (it had been removed
from the ibiblio site and I couldn't find it anywhere
on the web).

Not a big deal, of course, I just found a more recent
version of the jar and renamed it with the appropriate
version number (hoping that the jar hadn't changed
significantly ... it hadn't :)

The issue is, tho, that if I'd been using Maven for
some time I would have already had that jar in the
repository. But because I'd only just started with
Maven, I didn't.

This means, in effect, that in order to guarantee
a "clean" build, you have to install a clean Maven.

It's not a commonplace scenario, I agree, and it's not
Maven's "fault", as such, except in that it means your
build process is kind of dependent on your build
process from a week, or a month, ago.

Has anyone been able to install Jboss in Eclipse IDE so that you can run in debug mode!

The reason I ask is because if you can run in eclipse it shouldn't be too hard to get it all working using Maven...like any build I have worked with it tends to be alot of it but basic in what it is doing...I might just get the latest build and go for it...Ill start with 32X and then have a look at 4 later
