| Building Ant with Maven |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| The Ant jars can be built using Maven and the POMS present in this directory. |
| |
| Libs not available in the maven repository |
| |
| groupId artifactId version comment |
| com.bea weblogic 8.1.3.0 download it |
| com.bea weblogicclasses 5.1 a newer version can do. |
| jai jai-core 1.1.2_01 fetch.xml |
| jai jai-codec 1.1.2.1 fetch.xml |
| com.ibm.netrexx netrexx 2.0.5 fetch.xml |
| com.starteam starteam-sdk 5.2 the original file is called starteam-sdk.jar |
| stylebook stylebook 1.0-b2 the original file is called stylebook-1.0-b2.jar |
| |
| to install a jar file into your local Maven cache, do this |
| |
| mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=foo.org -DartifactId=xx -Dversion=x.y -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/a/b/foo.jar |
| |
| HOW TO BUILD : |
| |
| from this directory, type |
| |
| mvn install (or mvn package) |
| |
| If you do not have all the dependencies, you can remove the modules that you will not be able to build |
| from the pom.xml in this directory. |
| |
| You also might want to disable the tests. |
| |
| mvn install -Dmaven.test.skip=true |
| |
| TODO : |
| |
| * see if the dependency to weblogicclasses.jar can be replaced by a dependency to some j2ee.jar from Sun, |
| as it supplies some javax.ejb classes which are required at compile time. |
| |
| PROBLEMS : |
| |
| * the unit tests cannot run properly, the maven-surefire-plugin sets a system property basedir |
| which make a large part of our tests fail |
| |
| * JIRA issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-184 asking the Maven colleagues to fix this. :-) |
