Comments on: Spring Framework Maven Artifacts http://blog.springsource.com/main/2007/11/26/spring-framework-maven-artifacts/ The voice of SpringSource Thu, 21 Aug 2008 19:40:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.11 by: Ben Hale http://blog.springsource.com/main/2007/11/26/spring-framework-maven-artifacts/#comment-96386 Mon, 04 Feb 2008 11:17:08 +0000 http://blog.springsource.com/main/2007/11/26/spring-framework-maven-artifacts/#comment-96386 Actually haven't moved our build systems over, we only create Maven artifacts. There are a couple of projects in the Spring Portfolio that use Maven, but not all of them do. Going forward the new portfolio projects are using a build system that is based on ANT and Ivy. Maven certainly has come on a bit, but there are still enough issues with it, that we feel a unified build system based on ANT and Ivy is more useful to us. However, each situation is different and I encourage you to evaluate based on your own projects. Actually haven't moved our build systems over, we only create Maven artifacts.

I have seens lots of discussion about use of ANT Ivy instead of Maven, and was wondering what your position was? I am currently implementing the building of all my companies products in Maven, but was challenged by a colleague as to why I am not using the ANT Ivy combination instead. I didn't really have an answer, which is partly the reason for me posting here. The articles I have read however were over a year old, so, my personal opinion is that Maven has come on a lot over that time. It has transitive dependencies now, which it did not have in earlier incarnations... etc, etc. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

What (if anything) is happening with that project? I've noticed spring richclient isn't there, will it be put there?

The more granular artifacts are fine, so you could use those until the 2.5.1 release which is coming shortly. As well, you can just use the current snapshots that this post talks about.

It currently contains just the source for spring aop. Thanks! Martin Hi Alex,

could you please update the spring-2.5-sources.jar at http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/springframework/spring/2.5/.
