In a multi-module project, how can you specify that you want to execute a plugin goal in all the child-modules, but not on the parent project? There is <pluginManagement>, but that only defines the configuration for the execution -- the child modules would still need to reference the plugin to get the goal executed: [...] However, th...
If this is answered somewhere else, kindly smack me and point me in the right direction. I'm brand new to Maven and trying to wrap my head around how to use it with my projects. I've got two top level projects, one a Swing app, the other is a set of Web Services. They both depend on the same in-house jar. What are good ways to set up...
I want to run a Maven compilation by my Java code. Thus, I've used the example of the usage of Maven Embedder explained here. This works pretty well, except that I want to redirect all the log written by the Maven Embedder to my own Logger. So, I created my own MavenEmbedderLogger (out is a PrintStream of mine): class MvnLogger extends...

I want to compile a project using the MavenEmbedder. Thus, I use this code: Configuration config = new DefaultConfiguration(); config.setUserSettingsFile(new File("...")); config.setClassLoader(Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()); ConfigurationValidationResult validationResult = MavenEmbedder.validateConfigur...
I have a multi-module Maven project in a Subversion repository with many developers working on it with Eclipse + M2Eclipse. Now if a developer adds a module, others need to do an SVN update from the command line (as Eclipse doesn't see the common root of the Maven project), and import the new module manually as an Eclipse project. Is th...
Hi, we have java and flex projects at work. We currently have 1 base pom that contains the configurations we want to use for both projects. Problem with this is: flex projects inherit configuration for javadoc and pmd for example, which they do not want. I want to do this a bit more clean and have a real base-pom and then a java-base-p...
I have configured the ant-run-plugin to run in the post-site phase. By the way, it transforms to findbugs-report. I find its result in my target/site-folder. Calling site-stage produces the entire multi-module site in an extra directory. There, my transformed findbugs-report is missing. Why is that? I assumend stage-site copies the pie...
My application needs to know the path to a directory where it can store its data. I tried to set a Java system property and use that variable as a placeholder in my Spring XML. In Eclipse I added that property to the environment of my run configuration and it works just fine. Spring resolves ${dataDir} to the correct path. But when I t...
It's easy to add the findbugs plugin to maven so that it will run if I do mvn site However, I would like it to run whenever I do mvn install just like unit tests. That is, I don't want the install to succeed if findbugs finds any bugs. Is there are way for me to do this? ...

My company writes companion products for project management software that uses that software's Java API. They release new API versions with new releases of their products, and also point releases for bug fixes etc. We need to support clients using various versions of their software (and by extension, their API). In order to do this wi...

We're trying to generate source code stubs from a series of WSDLs (each with their own XSDs). We can do this fine and works perfectly under JDK1.6, however we need it to work under JDK1.5. We're using jaxws-maven-plugin to generate the source code, however it depends on the wsimport binary being available (this is not available in JDK1...
I followed the instructions here, and it worked but only if it was mapped to a directory other than the default. Here's a sample that I tried: <configuration> <webResources> <resource> <directory>${basedir}/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF</directory> <!-- the below works when uncommented and does exclude...
I'm a lone Emacs user in a group that's hung up on Eclipse. Time and again, code diffs are made larger by imports that have been "organized" or "cleaned up" by Eclipse. I don't have a strong opinion on the subject of import style in Java, but I do want to minimize our diffs. What can I do? We use Maven2 for builds; is there a plugin th...
As part of my pom.xml I copy some extra resources to the target directory as follows. <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.4.1</version> <executions> <execution> <id>copy-package-doc</id> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>copy-resources</goal>...
The project is using Maven so the POM files are the main sources of project info. There are some useful settings in the project files which would be nice to keep. OTOH IDEA seems to create too many redundant changes in the project file structure which pollutes the SVN history and sometimes creates conflicts. Should I keep the .idea di...
I'm writing a Maven plugin and I am using default values for all parameters such as this: /** * The file with the site structure. * * @parameter expression="${generateSite.siteFile}" default-value="${basedir}/src/oda/site.xml" */ private File siteFile; Now I am adding a new parameter which is a collection. Is there a way to set d...
I'm trying to run jetty without building the whole project, but simply point jetty to a folder under the target folder. Reason behind doing this is that I wish to use jetty as a static content server while i build application for glassfish. i don't want to redeploy all the time when i make a little change to a css file, for example.
