Re: [m2e-dev] Support for gitflow-Extension via m2e-connector - possible

[Michael Wenig <eclipse@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
(just recognizued that the answer went directly to Mickael and not to the list)

thanks for replying and the links to the issues.

I aggree that an ideal solution would be to just run the extensions (eventually with a blacklist) without the need for a connector. As far as I understood Fred this is explicitly not desired because of side effects. This is the reason why I wanted to explicitly create something which allows ti use this plugin (as this is a nearly a story-breaker at our side).

I also read on several places that users finally solved the git versioning problem by switching to IntelliJ because m2e has no support of it. So I think if we can get this thing to work we would help many users which not yet went away from eclipse.

I would try to just run the extensions.

For testing to just run all configured extensions I did not found how to do that. Could someone tell me what I need to call to run maven with extensions? It seems that the extensions are not visible at all at the moment.

Regards

    Michael

Hello,

See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=486737 and https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=530587 on that topic. There is a patch for https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=486737 which seemed interesting but was abandoned. Please comment on the bugs to review the proposed approaches and, if necessary, provide alternative ones.

Note that although it may be difficult, we need to keep in mind that the best solution involves *not* requiring a connector and being able to fully rely on the extension; so that if this problem can be solved in a general way, we should prefer it and not build extension for connectors and so on.

Cheers,
