Herve Boutemy commented on MANTTASKS-27: ---------------------------------------- buildlist Ivy task documentation is now here: http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/use/buildlist.html I doubt the first use case can be done, since I don't see how to find children pom from a super-pom. The second one seems more feasible, and ressembles to Ivy's buildlist. I don't have time to work on this challenging feature, but if someone works on it, I'll be happy to review: svn location is http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/ant-tasks/trunk/ > Ant task to determine build order from a super pom, or from a set of poms > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MANTTASKS-27 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTTASKS-27 > Project: Maven 2.x Ant Tasks > Issue Type: New Feature > Environment: all environments > Reporter: Antoine Levy-Lambert > > I am working with the maven-artifact-ant-2.0.4-dep.jar antlib. > an ant task allowing to determine in which order to build the components > which are the children of a super pom, or a list of components would be > useful. > Ivy has such a task http://www.jayasoft.org/ivy/doc/use/buildlist. > the following use cases should be supported : > 1) most simple : take a super pom as input, look for the children poms, > compute a build order, and create an ant filelist with the build.xml files in > the right order > 2) next use case : work from a fileset of build files, assuming there is a > file called pom.xml in the directory of each build file > 3) since Maven can support pom files called something else than pom.xml, add > optionally a mapper to find the pom.xml for a given build.xml > if someone adds a pointer to the locations in Subversion which need to be > checked out to prepare such a new task, maybe someone in the community will > be able to prepare the corresponding task, documentation, testcase. > I am well aware that this need is not central to Maven. But if this is > addressed, it can help people who want to first use only the repository > management functions of maven without migrating to full blown maven > immediately. > Regards, > Antoine -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
