Ivy-Maven transitive dependency problem

I have multiple modules project built partially with Maven (pure Java modules) and partially with ANT with IVY dependencies management (mixed Java and other technologies modules).
I have an IVY module that depends on another IVY module, which depends on Maven module.
('IVY module X' <- 'IVY module Y' <- 'Maven module Z')

When Y is coming from maven repository (Nexus) , X doesn't get the transitive dependency Z as I would expect expect.

I couldn't find anything on the net, so the workaround for now is to define Z as another dependency of X...

Have anyone dealt with this problem?

Which Installer should I use?

Hi all,

 

I need to create an installation for a product.

I'm looking for an open source Installer with fast learning curve, cross platform, java based (preffered). 

Pros & cons will be appreciated.

 

Thank you,

-Arik

Axis2 Maven plugin problem

I need to make pom.xml to generate Axis2 client based on WSDL file. Originally code was developed for client generated by Ant.

I used axistools-maven-plugin to do that. However Maven plugin generates different code.

I think the problem is plugin configuration. But i can't find enough documentation or examples to configure the plugin to generate in the same manner as Ant script.

Ant configuration:

How to convert path slashes during build

It happens many times that you need to set a property using path defined in the build process and convert slashes according to the relevant OS, and do it while coping the property file to the target directory during build.
Here is a simple example how to do it with Ant:

let's say mypath is defined as "module\conf\xml"
in your my.properties the path should appear as:
MY_NEW_PATH=@mypath@/more/xxx

Java Build Tools: Ant vs. Maven

Maven is crap, Ant is better, Rake for the rescue...

Yet another blog entry (updated) to support my approach in the last 6 years...

Uppercut is an automated .NET build framework built with NAnt.
From the site:
UppercuT is the insanely easy to use Automated Build Framework! Automated Builds as easy as (1) solution name, (2) source control path, (3) company name for most projects!!!

 

I stumbled on this project. I don't know how good it is, and can't evaluate it since I'm not in .Net, but the tagline sounds good. What do the .Net guys think?
