  • An introduction to Maven 2 by John Ferguson Smart   - [Clicks: 738]
    Do you spend too much time maintaining complex Ant build scripts for your Java projects? Do you have to reinvent or relearn a new set of build targets for each new project? Do you end up with lots of unnecessary dependencies and never exactly know the JARs you really need? Could you use an automatically-generated and always-up-to-date internal project Website? If so, Maven 2 could provide the answers to your problems. The latest version of this popular open source build tool is a complete rewrite of version 1.x and adds many powerful new features such as transitive dependency management, a defined project lifecycle, easier custom builds using Ant tasks, and better site generation. Any new Java project has a lot to gain by using Maven 2.
