Re: [orbit-dev] How to use Orbit releases with maven-based non-Eclipse-p

[<Sven.Rottstock@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Oliver,

we had the same trouble in Stardust. Therefore we have created a file based Maven repository at http://archive.eclipse.org/stardust/maven/3rdparty/eclipse which contains the Orbit-JARs that are used in Stardust but in Maven style. We have used the same Maven coordinates as Maven Central but suffixed the version with -eclipse01 so that we can distinguish them from the original one. It would be very great to know how other Maven (non-OSGI) projects (like JGit?) are handling this...

Regards,
Sven

Hi Oliver,

I know that the Jetty project is doing something like this. They wrote some Maven stuff to turn Orbit jars into Maven consumable pieces. You might want to ask there.

FWIW, although some jars in Orbit might have been built from stuff in Maven Central, you can't consume stuff from Maven Central in you Eclipse projects and distribute that as is.  At least the about.html file needs to be added which (as far as I know) is not in any jar in Maven Central. Some bundles also only contain a subset. Additionally, in order to benefit from the simplified CQs (re-use from Orbit CQs) you must re-use the Orbit bits.
