Most important changes > include: > > * Major features > > * New metadata format > > XMvn 2.0.0 now reads and writes the new Javapackages metadata > format instead of dependency maps. Read-only depmap support > remains, but was deprecated. > > * Ivy integration > > Starting with version 2.0.0 XMvn provides a connector for Apache > Ivy which enables Ivy or its clients to have access to XMvn > resolver and deployer. > > This feature enables Ant build scripts using Ivy tasks or other > build systems that use Ivy to use local system artifact > repository to resolve dependencies and more, making Ivy a > first-class citizen among other build systems. > > * Artifact deployment > > Starting with version 2.0.0 XMvn provides an API to deploy > artifacts to system repositories. > > * API separation > > XMvn 2.0.0 ships with a separate API module, which makes it more > clear which parts of XMvn are part of public interface and which > are considered as implementation details. > > * Class loader isolation > > XMvn 2.0.0 Core implementation is now using an isolated class > loader to prevent unwanted classes from polluting Maven Core or > user classpath. > > * Minor features > > * Improved logging > > XMvn logging was ported from Plexus to SLF4J. This makes it > possible to easily set different logging levels for different > subsystems as well as use a custom backend. > > Besides that some logging messages were improved and new ones > were added. > > * Dependency version report > > At the end of a build XMvn can now print a dependency version > report, which contains information about requested and resolved > dependency artifact versions. > > * Improved Tycho integration > > XMvn 2.0.0 works better with Eclipse Tycho. In particular > system-scoped OSGi dependencies injected by Tycho are now > ignored and don't cause installation failures any longer. > > * Repository filtering > > XMvn 2.0.0 improves artifact filtering for installation > repositories. > > * Other changes > > * Migration to JSR-330 > > Internal dependency injection mechanisms were migrated from Sisu > Plexus to Sisu Inject, which provides JSR-330-compatible IoC > mechanisms. > > * XMvn Connector rename > > <<<xmvn-connector>>> module was renamed to > <<<xmvn-connector-aether>>> to reflect addition of the new > <<<xmvn-connector-ivy>>> module. > > * Removal of deprecated API > > Parts of XMvn API which were marked as deprecated were removed. > > * Namespace cleanup > > Java package names were renamed from > <<<org.fedoraproject.maven>>> to <<<org.fedoraproject.maven>>>. > > * XMvn Installer rewrite > > XMvn Installer was rewritten from scratch in 2.0.0 and a new > pluggable API was added. > > * Effective POM installation > > Effective POM's are no longer installed during package build. > XMvn resolver is able to generate them on demand during package > build from the new Javapackages metadata. > -- > java-devel mailing list > java-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/java-devel -- java-devel mailing list java-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/java-devel
