[jbossts-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBTM-679) Enable use of maven to import external lib jars into XTS

[Andrew Dinn (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBTM-679?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12509608#action_12509608 ] 

Andrew Dinn commented on JBTM-679:
----------------------------------

Ok, checked in changes for almost all of the build scripts so they now refer to the parent JBossTS directory for their external libraries bar junit. The only top level module not yet changed is localjunit which needs commons-logging (that's already pulled in), commons-httpclient and commons-codec.jar. Pulling in the correct junit jar will require rejigging most of the XTS tests as JBossTS installs an incompatible version.

> The XTS build process employs a variety of external jars:
>   JBossTS jars
>   JBossWS  jars (including Java EE API jars, JBossWS native jars and CXF jars)
>   JBossAS jars (including Java EE API jars)
>   other java jars (junit)
> The build  process should normally employ the JBossTS jars produced by building JBossTS in the source tree containing  XTS as a subtree. However, in the case of the other sets of jars it should be possible to build XTS with a guarantee that the build employs known versions of each of the required jars.
> This should be achieved using maven to resolve dependencies and  download the required jars. In the case of the AS and WS jars the versions should be derived from the component-matrix pom associated with a specific version of the AS to which the XTS and TS tree is  matched.
