Problem building Struts with Maven
Hi to everybody
I've tried to build Struts using Maven but I had the following error message:
__ __
| \/ |__ _Apache__ ___
| |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \ ~ intelligent projects ~
|_| |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_| v. 1.0-rc1-SNAPSHOT
Attempting to download commons-validator-1.1.2-dev.jar.
WARNING: Failed to download commons-validator-1.1.2-dev.jar.
The build cannot continue because of the following unsatisfied dependency:
commons-validator-1.1.2-dev.jar (try downloading from
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/validator/)
Total time: 2 seconds
Finished at: Tue Apr 13 11:23:59 CEST 2004
Anyone can kindly help me with that?
Thanks a lot
Sergio

Sergio, the immediate problem is simply that that version of
commons-validator is not available from the iBiblio repository
(because it's a dev version). There are a variety of solutions to
the problem, but since Validator has cut a 1.1.2 release, I think the
best solution would be for us to get a copy of that release on
IBiblio and to change the dependency in Struts' project.xml. This
would be a necessary step to cutting a Struts 1.2.1 release, which
should happen RSN anyway.
Apache now has a mirroring arrangement with IBiblio:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.jakarta.commons.devel/39462
I will gladly do a build from the VALIDATOR_1_1_2 tag and place it in
/www/www.apache.org/dist/java-repository/commons-validator/jars/ and
then change the dependency in Struts' project.xml -- or I'll defer to
anyone else.
I'd also like to find a way to publish non-release builds in a way
that we can keep Struts building from Maven. Later in the
commons-dev thread cited above, in
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.jakarta.commons.devel/39469, Mark
D. suggested an Apache-only repository for nightly builds (not
mirrored to iBiblio) but it looks like that hasn't been implemented.
I still think it's a good idea. Did it get rejected, or just
stalled? If we were to do something like that, I think we'd want to
use a time-stamped versioning scheme instead of simply "*-dev" -- we
could simply use the results of a "maven jar:install-snapshot" build,
which produces a JAR with a date/time stamp. But first we have to
figure out if there will be an Apache repository for nightly builds.
