-----------------------------------------------------
Hi Glen,
a lot of topics in last comments! My 0.02c:
- IT's issue: I've misread, when you were talking about ITs I was thinking of
the Selenium ones, duh
- code modularization: my main concern on jumping to a Maven structure right
now is that build.xml builds up a lot of generated files and sets up a lot of
things, so it doesn't seem an easy task (the initial hiccups you mention). An
equivalent pom.xml to the current build.xml is going to be real big (aside from
the "usual", sonar, rat-report, precompiled-jsp-war, signing, hsql init &
shutdown, generation of jspwiki.properties,..)
- submodules: sonar's design page should give us some hints on what modules
could emerge. I'm eager to jump into submodules as soon as possible becuase in
my experience, having smaller submodules means having a ~30 lines pom +
dependencies per module, which is way easier to manage than a big, customized,
pom. Attaching to the Maven project layout should also help in minimizing the
pom (i.e.: the clean ant target). If we end up with a ~1700 lines pom.xml then
we're substituting one build system with another, but we're not making it more
simple.
Said that, I think you state a very good point, having a maven directory layout
and a minimal pom (i.e.: default goals + container support) should ease the hop
in. I'll definitely take a look at the CXF and Roller poms.
@All: more opinions on this?
