Running the bootstrap-build.bat or simply the archetype

[Johan Hedlund <jo...@dprof.net>]

Hi,

I'm new to NMaven (but not to maven itself) but definitely want to start
using it. I'm following the startup instructions on the site, but have run
into problems:

1) I first tried "Using NMaven Without Building". But then it complains
about not finding the "maven-archetype-dotnet-simple" archetype, and I can't
find that anywhere.

2) I then tried building NMaven myself, using the latest stable build
(december last year), but then mvn can't find the embedder 2.0.8 artifact.

what am I doing wrong? I'm running this on windows under maven 2.0.7, and
Windows. Do I need any specific repositories? I've tried to google for
version 2.0.8 of the embedder, but I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks

/Johan

For the trunk, you just need to do an "mvn install". In the trunk, we don't
have an archetype yet for creating sample projects, but I'll move that over
shortly.

Re: Running the bootstrap-build.bat or simply the archetype

I tried running trunk first, but I was a little confused by the
documentation at the nmaven site. It states that I should run the
bootstrap-build.sh to install it the first time, or is it not required
to that anymore? The thing is that I didnt find any bootstrap-build
files in the trunk, but they exists in the stable releases.

The reason I tried the stable release was that I couldnt get going
with creating a simple test project. So I will go back to the trunk
version and re-try. Is there anything more to do with the trunk than
"mvn install" ?

Then there is (must be) a typo on the Linux part "On Linux, you also
need Mono version 2.1.3.1 or higher." Last version I can find is
1.2.6.

Re: Running the bootstrap-build.bat or simply the archetype

I think that the best bet is to checkout the trunk (0.15 snapshot) and build
that one. The trunk does not support as many features but is more aligned
with the Maven way of building. The site doc is for 0.14 so the best way to
find out how to use 0.15, which is very different, is to look at the
core-integration-tests directory.

I'm going to work on getting the site docs aligned with 0.15. I'll also look
into the issue with 0.14. Erik R. reported the same problem. A quick
synopsis: the 0.14 snapshot originally built off of the maven-2.1 snapshot
because the VS2005 addin needed the latest maven embedder. Even though we
have NMaven stable tags, most are dependent on Maven 2.1 snapshots, which do
change, thus leading the stable tags to in fact be unstable.
STABLE-2007-12-16 was the first tag that we pegged against maven 2.0.x and
it looks as though there are still some maven embedder dependencies (from
Maven 2.1) that we forgot to remove.

Shane
