Since pulling in Dmitry's test-compile mojo, and adding a test script runner mojo to the clojure-maven-plugin I thought I'd try something fun like running the maven emma plugin against a very simple test project. I was pleasantly surprised to see so

Should Sun embrace Maven?

Sun, 14 Dec 2008 16:15:00 GMT

With all the talk from Sun about bringing a focus to modularity in the JDK via Project Jigsaw, I wonder how things would shape up if a modular build tool such as Apache Maven was also adopted. I've never looked at the JDK sources/build process and I

As we're starting to give our development environment a much needed update at ${work} I've been recently revisiting my usage of the Ivy dependency manager on my project and comparing it with the often hated Apache Maven (or at least the Maven Tasks f

I started using Maven2 and now I feel sick.

Thu, 16 Mar 2006 20:35:00 GMT

It's quite possibly purely coincidental but ever since I started playing with Maven 2 I've ended up feeling sick as a dog. Raspy throat, guttural deep cough and a husky croaking voice that makes Darth Vader sound like a Tenor. But regardless of t
