For several of my projects I capture the subversion revision number, time, user who ran the build, and some system information, stuff them into a .properties file that gets included in the application jar, and read that jar at runtime. The ant code looks like this: <!– software revision number –> <property name=”version” value=”1.23″/> <target … Read more
One option might be to set the logging level from within the target. You can access loggers by means of a short script task. Something like: <target … > <script language=”javascript”> var logger = project.getBuildListeners( ).firstElement( ); logger.setMessageOutputLevel( 0 ); </script> … </target> I’m not familiar with how Eclipse calls Ant, but it might be … Read more
The easiest way to do this would be to create an assembly using the maven-assembly-plugin and the predefined jar-with-dependencies descriptor. You’ll also need to generate a manifest with a main-class entry for this uber jar. The snippet below shows how to configure the assembly plugin to do so: <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <descriptorRefs> <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef> … Read more
For people wanting a quick solution to this problem: <dependency> <groupId>LIB_NAME</groupId> <artifactId>LIB_NAME</artifactId> <version>1.0.0</version> <scope>system</scope> <systemPath>${basedir}/WebContent/WEB-INF/lib/YOUR_LIB.jar</systemPath> </dependency> just give your library a unique groupID and artifact name and point to where it is in the file system. You are good to go. Of course this is a dirty quick fix that will ONLY work on your … Read more

Figuring out package dependencies is really not that hard. You rarely do it anyway. Probably once during project setup and few more during upgrades. With maven you’ll end up fixing mismatched dependencies, badly written poms, and doing package exclusions anyway. Not that hard… for toy projects. But the projects I work on have many, really … Read more
It is a best practice to push to a bare repo: see “concept of bare shared repository in git” and all about “bare” repos — what, why, and how to fix a non-bare push. Which means on your server, you need to: create a Git repo (you already did) clone that repo a bare repo … Read more
The default generator for Windows seems to be set to NMAKE. Try to use: cmake -G “MinGW Makefiles” Or use the GUI, and select MinGW Makefiles when prompted for a generator. Don’t forget to cleanup the directory where you tried to run CMake, or delete the cache in the GUI. Otherwise, it will try again … Read more
We use a non-recursive GNU Make system in the company I work for. It’s based on Miller’s paper and especially the “Implementing non-recursive make” link you gave. We’ve managed to refine Bergen’s code into a system where there’s no boiler plate at all in subdirectory makefiles. By and large, it works fine, and is much … Read more
The following is my solution. Test it if it works for you: <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <id>copy-dependencies</id> <phase>prepare-package</phase> <goals> <goal>copy-dependencies</goal> </goals> <configuration> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes/lib</outputDirectory> <overWriteReleases>false</overWriteReleases> <overWriteSnapshots>false</overWriteSnapshots> <overWriteIfNewer>true</overWriteIfNewer> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <archive> <manifest> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> <!– <classpathPrefix>lib</classpathPrefix> –> <!– <mainClass>test.org.Cliente</mainClass> –> </manifest> <manifestEntries> <Class-Path>lib/</Class-Path> </manifestEntries> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> The first plugin puts … Read more
