Re: Maven experts! Maven1.x vs Maven2.x

Hi guys,

I rolled out Maven 2 on our project recently.

Now the transitive dependencies is a must-have for any large scale
project, and will definitely future-proof your project.

As everyone has said, mavin-plugins is certainly an issue especially
when you are migrating from ant builds to maven.
The process can be painstaking at times, as I have learnt recently.

So my current approach is to use maven to setup the overall project,
then where you really need ant, just for that very special task, then
keep the build.xml separate and leave it as a black box to maven. You
could either get ant to output to the maven repository directly, or
write a "dumb" maven wrapper that runs your ant script.

Then when the plugin becomes available, we can then try incorporate it.

This way, you can roll out maven in stages on your project, and is a
lot less painful than a big-bang approach.

Hope this helps everyone :-)

and Maven rocks

pauli

Re: Maven experts! Maven1.x vs Maven2.x

[Arnaud HERITIER <ah...@gmail.com>]

We're always working on it.
A lot of plugins are already released [1] but we have also some annoying
bugs to fix in the core before to release the beta 3.
After that we'll publish some RC and the final release for maven 1.1
The only problem is that we are only 3 to maintain it and there's a lot of
work !!

For the choice between maven 1 and maven 2, I would recommend to use maven 2
if it suits your needs.
It misses some plugins [2] essentially for the reporting comparating with
m1. But it's just a question of time...
