[jira] Created: (MPSCM-55) Support for Clearcase

Support for Clearcase
---------------------

         Key: MPSCM-55
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPSCM-55
     Project: maven-scm-plugin
        Type: Task
    Versions: 1.1    
 Environment: Win NT 
    Reporter: Kanakambaran

Does Maven support Clearcase as an SCM ? There is conflicting information in various sites. Maven site documentation says that the Maven SCM plugin supports only CVS and Subversion.

What is the format for specifying the repository connection string for Clearcase ?

Anthony: This issue isn't about the repository supporting CC, but rather the SCM related plugins CC support. I think that you would like to look into the "SCM Wagon". Wagon is the repository transport mechanism (current implementations include "http", "ftp" and "file"), and the "SCM Wagon" is a special Wagon utilizing the Maven SCM library for accessing files in your SCM.

----------------------------------------

Beyond the more obvious issues of supporting ClearCase in the same manner as other version control tools, I have run into a problem when recommending Maven to clients that use version control solutions that also do real configuration management, as ClearCase does.  For these clients, it is counter-productive to have version information embedded in JAR filenames in the local repository.  The only way to sell use of Maven into that arena is if Maven can support Jars without explicit versions in the local repository.  All I really need is to be able to list a dependency without including a <version> element.

Maven 1.0 almost supports this, except that it adds a trailing hyphen to the file stem, and that means you can't use the normal, expected unversioned JAR name.

I think it is great that Maven provides a sensible versioning solution for users who aren't using configuration management tools, but I would also like to be able to support those that do have good configuration management tools and practices, and for whom the Maven versioning approach would be a bit of a backwards step.

Thanks, Cheers, Tony.

-------------------------------

What type of clearcase environment do you have? UCM, SCM, a mixture of UCM/SCM.  Do you use dynamic view or snapshot view?

[jira] Updated: (MPSCM-55) Support for Clearcase

Posted by "Brett Porter (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPSCM-55?page=all ]

Brett Porter updated MPSCM-55:
------------------------------

    Fix Version: 1.6

it is supported by the changelog plugin, but not SCM out of the box. It is possible that it might work as there is a library available, but it is untested.
We will be testing it over the coming months.
