    <p>We're currently moving from a quite old Perl + Ant build system to maven. </p> <p>The software itself is a client/server app using RMI as main communication system and the build produces a (large) number of jars. </p> <p>This piece of software existed long before usual frameworks become mature, so the <em>it does not</em> make usage of : </p> <ul> <li>any usual persistence layers (Hibernate/JPA like) </li> <li>any MVC application frameworks like Spring</li> <li>any Java EE infrastructure ( no war/ear packaging)</li> </ul> <p>In fact it is shipped as a set of jar and conf files, with a set of startup/admin scripts.</p> <p>We ported the compilation/building system to maven3. The client and server deployment trees are currently being ported to maven with the assembly plug-in. </p> <p>What we're currently missing, in the maven framework, is to be able to deploy the app on development stations and build servers and to run some basic integration tests.</p> <p>Ideally we'd like to use maven in to deploy an image of the client, server and a DB fixture ( that is actually code generated as well). </p> <p>I've found a lot of pointers on how to deploy a web app, few on the integration tests themselves, and almost none on how to handle the deployment of a (very) old school C/S architecture using maven.</p> <p>So my questions would be: </p> <ul> <li>are there are any known and mature plug-ins capable of deploying the app. and handling the DB fixture in a C/S manner? </li> </ul> <p>If not, what would be your advice(s): </p> <ul> <li>use ant rules and bind them to maven life cycle in order to handle the deployment process (we have a couple of ant targets that could be adapted to fit in the process)?</li> <li>write a maven plug-in that would fit the exact deployment needs?</li> </ul>

    1. COWhat kind of client/server things do you have that you have to use assembly-plugin (no things like EJB/WAR ?)

    2. COWhat kind of integration tests do you like to run? There exists the maven-failsafe-plugin to run integration tests? The question is: Is it not sufficient or do you have particular requirements? Deployment to app servers (JBoss, Glassfish etc.) can be done by using cargo-maven plugin or JBoss (i don't know the name).

    3. COHi, thanks for your answer. Some info : the app is basically a set of jars and a couple of launch scripts, there are no J2EE elements (EJB, Wars), while most of the maven deployement plugins address J2EE infrastructures. The integration tests can be coded and runned from separate modules, however I'm more looking for a "maven way" of deploying a legacy code C/S application with an empty database ( I know sql maven plugin can help up to some point).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
