maven compile error message format
Can anyone in the world tell me what line number and what error this
compiler thinks my error is in source file ServiceDiscovery.java?
/home/conalab/MikesNewAndroidWork/workspace3/jxwhiteboard_ccn_gohuawei_dist/trunk/src/com/huawei/cona/android/zeroconf/ServiceDiscovery.java:[5,12]

At least, I got the "Wayne is right" part correct.

Actually that is the scary thing... it CAN break things. Go read that
old Maven Users email from early 2010 that I linked to.
This is definitely an anti-pattern IMO.

Putting the sources in a executable jar just makes it bigger and slower
to load at run--time with absolutely no benefit to the execution.
Wayne is right that it will not break anything but why do it.
People who run programs are not generally the people who read or use
source code.
People who want the source code are probably going to alter it to make a
new executable jar with their version of your code.
They don't need your compiled classes in the source artifact that you
give them.
Make it a separate artifact if you want to share the source code.

In and of itself, this is a true statement. It does not mean that it
is a best practice. I'm sure that we could come up with all kinds of
things that "work" but are probably a bad idea for one reason or
another.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2253077/what-are-the-maven-2-best-practices
"Don't fight against Maven, you'll loose."
Maven offers you "best practices", if you decide not follow them that
is your choice, but it is much easier if you accept Maven's view of
the world.

Thanks Wayne,
That is the reason for my two jars, one is source and the other binary.
However, this statement does not make sense in all cases, since one can
create self-running JAR files with mainclass.mf manifest file to run the
program with "java -jar myProgram.jar". This may include both binary and
source.

You have already been sufficiently razed over the real issue regarding
your import statements. I won't pile on but assume that you will
review your Java 101 documentation.
I do want to point out (for you and anyone else who sees this thread
in the future) that it is highly unlikely that you want to use the
same jar for "sources" and binary. This is what your install-file
command above is doing.
In general, I'd expect to see a binary jar (eg jmdns.jar) and a
sources jar (eg jmdns-src.jar). You would specify the binary file with
-Dfile and the source file with -Dsources.
In fact, I'd go so far as to strongly encourage you to NOT use a
sources jar (or a binary jar that packs the sources along with the
compiled binaries) as if it was a binary jar. Compilers will do funky
things when they run into Java source code in binary jars -- we've
seen several complaints from people doing GWT work on this list where
their compilers were giving odd error messages that were related to
the source files in their binary jars.

Re: maven compile error message format
Posted by Ron Wheeler <rw...@artifact-software.com>.
I read in my morning mail that you were told how to fix this.
import com.huawei.cona.android.jmdns-new;
The compiler is not even looking at your maven dependencies.
It is telling you that you have a syntax error. jmdns-new is not a legal syntax for a class name in an import statement since it is missing the package part of the class name.
It can not even figure out what you want to import so it does not care what you have as dependencies in Maven.
Follow Barrie's advice and read up on Java packages. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_package is a start.
Once you have a line without a syntax error, you will get into Maven.
Barrie's advice about reading up on Maven to understand dependencies and the structure of the GAV (GroupId, ArtifactId, Version)
<dependency>
<groupId>com.huawei.cona.android</groupId>
<artifactId>jmdns-new</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
or
<dependency>
<groupId>com.huawei.cona</groupId>
<artifactId>android-jmdns-new</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

Oh we all know what the issue is.
Hint: You don't know what a valid package name is and you don't understand
some basic concepts of Java.
Trust us, this *is* a java programming issue. This is *not* a maven issue.

I see you don't know what the issue is either. This is not a java

I'm sorry, the short and blunt answer is you need to go on a Java course.
Start with http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial
Plus other replies have also provided other links you might find useful.
You are misunderstanding the fundamentals of programming in Java and
mixing up java archives (*.jar files) with java packages (the stuff
you import).
There is just way to much knowledge missing for people on this list to
help you out.
Once you have a solid foundation in Java, I recommend you read the
freely available books on Maven at
http://maven.apache.org/articles.html
This will help you understand what are good values for <version>, what
is the purpose of <scope>, why should avoid the use of
<scope>system</scope>.

Hi Barrie,
Sorry to take anymore of your time up. But I have not had any success with
all the changes I have made to correct this problem. Based on your
recommendation I suspect it is a mismatch in what I have in my code and in
my pom/environment. I used mvn install to add jar files that I created
manually (Old one was changed today to this in an attempt to correct it)
Like this-
conalab@ching-jen-laptop:~/.m2/repository/com/huawei/cona/android/zeroconf/jmdns/1.0$
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=src.jmdns.jar -Dsources=src.jmdns.jar

*********************************
As you can see this created new jar/pom files in my local repository. Then
I also changed the source file using these new jars. The main issue that
seem to cause my problem before was the use of "jmdns-1.0.jar" where the
1.0 in the name did not seem to be recommended in the write up about syntax
used for packages in java. So this time I don't have any numbers. But I do
have "jmdns-new.tar" for my new jar. The local (in repository) pom gets
automatically created as this-
<groupId>src.service</groupId>
<artifactId>service</artifactId>
<version>new</version>
<description>POM was created from install:install-file</description>
****************************
I also added this to my project pom (did same thing last time) as this -
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>src.service</groupId>
<artifactId>service</artifactId>
<version>new</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>/home/conalab/.m2/repository/src/service/service/new/service-new.jar</systemPath>
****************************
But in the code I have attempted to import them without any success and get
the same dumb error messages. Here is the source file section -
package com.huawei.cona.android.zeroconf;
import java.io.IOException;
import jmdns-new;
import service-new;
import service.ServiceEvent;
import service.ServiceInfo;
import service.ServiceListener;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
********************************
Error messages seem to complain about the "-new" now instead of the 1.0
like last time.

So I have attempted to change the way the two import statement are but
nothing makes it work.
Do you (or anyone else) see something basic that is still not correct?
By the way. nothing like this should take this long to fix without
suspecting the basic system is just broken, since not enough information is
know about the internals of Maven. The manual has not helped. Not enough
time to study the code.

Quite easy: These package names are invalid. See for example here:

ok thnak you very much. This was what I was expecting, however i could not
see what the issue was. Here are the lines in the code from line 1 on
package com.huawei.cona.android.zeroconf;
import java.io.IOException;
import jmdns-1.0;
import service-1.0;
import service.ServiceEvent;
import service.ServiceInfo;
import service.ServiceListener;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class ServiceDiscovery extends Activity {
any ideas? My pom has these exact files names in them as dependency

The errors are telling you its expecting a .
I suspect you have your imports defined incorrectly.
