WAR/JAR sync deploy for GWT modules
Hi all,
I am building GWT modules. A GWT module may be used on it's own (as a WAR), and other times is a dependency for a larger project (as a binary JAR).
I've tried this approach here: http://communitygrids.blogspot.com/2007/11/maven-making-war-and-jar-at-same-time.html
Unfortunatley, it looks like the maven-metadata.xml, or something else in the repository world, doesn't recognize both a WAR and a JAR at the same time when we try to pull back from the repo. When I go to the repo, the WAR and the JAR have different file date/times, which may or may not matter to the maven-metadata.xml -- this is all guessing at this point.
In any fashion, trying to search on how to solve this problem has been a nightmare in itself -- any guidance please?
thanks,
-D

confirm, using a more recent war plugin with <attachClasses> and using the dependency classifier <classifier>classes</classifier> did allow the packing type WAR project to also deploy a binary JAR to my repos (so WAR and JARs are deploying to production. Now those jars are available as a dependency (so, for GWT purposes, can set dependencies with classifiers 'sources' and 'classes' to build up GWT modules).
thanks! -D
==================
Example:
<packaging>war</packaging>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1-beta-1</version>
<configuration>
<!-- make sure modern war-plugin version -->
<attachClasses>true</attachClasses>
...
==============
then in other projects depending on jar binary (GWT class files as you integrate):
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
...
<classifier>classes</classifier>
...

Since you're not actually describing the problem you're having, it's
hard to say what the solution might be. But I do know that the URL you
posted below describes a terribly convoluted non-solution. The only
thing you need to do to create a JAR file containing the classes AND get
it installed in your local repository AND get it deployed to the remote
repository (at the appropriate lifecycle phases) is this:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<attachClasses>true</attachClasses>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Any time you're using install-file or deploy-file inside your pom,
something is wrong.
HTH,
Justin
