Kem Elbrader commented on MEAR-92: ---------------------------------- Executing a separate goal wouldn't perform the work done by goals in earlier phases e.g. ear:generate-application-xml. Seems that the standard life cycle will often result in significant and unnecessary work being done. Makes me wonder whether there should be a life cycle devoted to situations where the resulting jar file isn't needed. > Add createEarFile property > -------------------------- > > Key: MEAR-92 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEAR-92 > Project: Maven 2.x Ear Plugin > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 2.3.2 > Reporter: Kem Elbrader > Attachments: EarMojo.java, EarMojo.patch > > > When directory deploying an ear project often a majority of the time is spent > unnecessarily building the ear archive i.e. "Building jar: ...". Since it > isn't needed during development it'd be nice if the ear plugin could be > configured to stop short of actually building the archive file. > The attahced patch adds a createEarFile property to the EarMojo class to > control whether to create the .ear file archive or not. > All changes in this patch are in the EarMojo.java file which is also attached. -- 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
