Adding Dependencies to Maven Project HW#2

Author	Message
lmann2 Posts: 156	Posted 16:46 Jan 20, 2015 \| To clarify: Under the Spring MVC instructions you ask us to add a dependency: 1. Add the dependency `org.springframework:spring-webmvc:3.2.8.RELEASE` Which means that we add this to pom.xml: <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-web</artifactId> <version>3.2.8.RELEASE</version> </dependency> and then update the maven project, correct? Sorry if this is a silly question I just got a bit confused.

Sorry if this is a silly question I just got a bit confused. The usual way to write Maven coordinates is <group id>:<artifact id>:<version>. You are mostly right except that the artifact id should be spring-webmvc, not spring-web.

(15pt) Follow Step 1 and 2 in Spring and Hibernate From Scratch to create a Spring web application called gefp (which stands for Golden Eagle Flight Plan). Q: The example in your instructions has us set up a simple application is that we're uploading to CSNS or are we uploading our first project? Also, What is naming the spring web application (i.e. should it be <artifactId> in the beginning of the pom.xml? Use the Maven Assembly plugin to package the source files of the application into a zip file gefp-src.zip and upload it to CSNS. For this assignment the source package should only include the /src folder and pom.xml. Q:This is naive, but are we downloading the plugin through eclipse>help>InstallNewSoftware or do we just add a dependency in the pom.xml file?...I guess the steps listed in the link below threw me off: choose or write the assembly descriptor to use, configure the Assembly Plugin in your project's `pom.xml`, and run "mvn assembly:single" on your project.

I guess the choose/write option is there because maven provides some default descriptors that can be chosen to execute certain specific functions OR the user can write their custom configurations in the descriptor file.

The assignment says "Follow Step 1 and 2 in Spring and Hibernate From Scratch to create a Spring web application called gefp (which stands for Golden Eagle Flight Plan). Use the Maven Assembly plugin to package the source files of the application into a zip file gefp-src.zip and upload it to CSNS". "The application" refers to the application in the previous sentence, not the application in the last homework. And yes, in a Maven project the artifactId is the project name. 2. The lecture notes has an example of adding a plugin (the compiler plugin) to pom.xml, which basically involves specifying the coordinates of the plugin, associating a goal of the plugin to a build cycle phase, and configuring the plugin. In this case the goal is "single", the phase should be "package", and the configuration is the path to the assembly descriptor file which contains information about the package like the format of the package (e.g. zip) and the files/directories to be included/excluded. To run it use "mvn package".

Note that only source files should be version controlled. After the project is imported, create a tag called cs520-hw2. Q: So, the follow up question is "the project" is HW1, correct?

No, "the project" refers to the Spring webapp gefp created in 2.
