Maven (tig)

  • Building the KIELER product
  • Buildprozess currently: Hudson server: Ant script, no Eclipse. This process is rather obscure.
  • Another option would be Maven.
  • Maven can compile. Component-based approach.
  • Suggestion: change build process from Ant script to Maven
  • Tycho: Extension for Maven. Tycho makes build information available. Solves build dependencies.
  • Can Maven create automatic time stamps? (chsch)
    • tig: Apparently it can. Will investigate it further.
  • There might be a name clash with Xtend/Xtend2
