Build improvements ------------------ Key: GTNPORTAL-2438 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-2438 Project: GateIn Portal Issue Type: Enhancement Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 3.2.0-GA Reporter: Marko Strukelj Assignee: Marko Strukelj Fix For: 3.3.0.CR01 Building and packaging with different servers uses inconsistent system properties, and behaviors. Some of the issues are: - build has dependencies on old repository.jboss.org/maven2 requiring users to configure jboss public repository in their maven settings.xml - verbose names for properties influencing the build - inconsistent -Pdownload behaviour, failed to work for tomcat6, tomcat7, no support for jetty - it's annoying that build fails with -Pdownload if the server directory exists already - it's annoying to sometime use -P and sometimes -D Implement the following: - All settings are used via -D - -Ddownload can be used any time and should use defaults and fallbacks to successfully complete the build - Use the following system properties: ** -Dservers.dir ... the only parameter required - specifies path to directory containing downloaded and exploded application servers ** -Dserver.name ... name of a directory under ${servers.dir} that should be used for packaging. Only makes sense when packaging one server only ** -Ddownload ... use default ${server.name}, and download and explode the server archive to default ${server.name} if necessary ** -Dtomcat6.name ... necessary to specify Tomcat6 directory name in place of -Dserver.name when packaging multiple servers in one build ** -Dtomcat7.name ... necessary to specify Tomcat7 directory name in place of -Dserver.name when packaging multiple servers in one build ** -Djboss5.name ... necessary to specify JBoss AS5 directory name in place of -Dserver.name when packaging multiple servers in one build ** -Djboss6.name ... necessary to specify JBoss AS6 directory name in place of -Dserver.name when packaging multiple servers in one build ** -Djboss7.name ... necessary to specify JBoss AS7 directory name in place of -Dserver.name when packaging multiple servers in one build ** -Djetty.name ... necessary to specify Jetty6 directory name in place of -Dserver.name when packaging multiple servers in one build
