Maven and slow dependencies report
Oct 5th
Maven and slow dependencies report
If the dependencies report takes too long to finish, it could be due to maven trying to determine (and generate a report of) which repository contains which artifact… and the network and/or repos being slow or unreachable.
In any case, here’s how you can short-circuit that process:
mvn -Ddependency.locations.enabled=false site
Maven Presentation

On Feb 14 (yep, that was the Valentine’s day), i did a Maven presentation for out local Java User Group, and it looks like it was very well received (which is great cause i was terribly nervous at the begining ).

Nigel, why did Kasparov retire from chess?

Nigel, why did Kasparov retire from chess?
He’s one of the most original chess players – someone that simply just loves the game. Here’s what Viswanathan Anand has to say about him:
He’s someone who is very intelligent … but you never know which mood he is going to be in.
Some days he will treat you like his long-lost brother. The next day he ignores you completely.
I have seen him totally drunk and singing Ukrainian poetry and then the next day I have seen him give an impressive talk.
For a while he was trying to learn Turkish. Don’t ask me why … Every day is a surprise with him.
And here’s his latest quote:

Quick maven tip for downloading sources of a specific dependency
This may come in handy. since on big projects with many dependencies it may take a while to download ALL sources. So, here is an example:
mvn dependency:sources -DincludeGroupIds=org.apache.tapestry

Μου ήρθε αρνητικός ΟΤΕ, τι κάνω???

Μου ήρθε αρνητικός ΟΤΕ, τι κάνω???
Απίστευτο! Τόσο απίστευτο που πρώτη φορά μπλογκάρω στα Ελληνικά!
Κι όμως, μόλις έλαβα λογαριασμό -9.50 ευρώ (ΜΕΙΟΝ ΕΝΝΕΑ ΚΑΙ ΠΕΝΗΝΤΑ)… χαχα, τέλεια. Που όμως πάω να τα εισπράξω? Γιατί το μόνο που βλέπω στη πίσω πλευρά είναι : “τι πρεπει να γνωριζεται για την εξοφληση του λογαριασμου σας” – έλα όμως που εμείς θέλουμε το αντίθετο… Να υποθέσω οτι αν δεν με εξοφλήσουν εγκαιρως, δικαιούμαι και τόκους???
Και για να εξηγήσω το αρνητικό ποσό – είναι οφειλή απο προηγούμενο λογαριασμό η οποία κανονικά αφαιρείται από το ποσό του τρέχοντος. Επειδή όμως τον ΟΤΕ τον σχολάσαμε, έχουμε το απλό 0 – 9.50 = -9.50
Quick maven tip for deploying to remote FTP repository
Oct 30th
First, you’ll need to make sure the following jars exist in %MAVEN_HOME%/lib (i include the versions i currently have):
- wagon-ftp (1.0-beta-2)
- commons-net (1.4.1)
- oro (2.0.8)
Then define a server (& its credentials) for the remote repo in your ~/.m2/settings.xml and finally issue something like:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -Dfile=mysql-source.jar -Dclassifier=sources
-DpomFile=mysql-connector-java.pom -Durl=ftp://my.server.com/path/to/repository -DrepositoryId=my.server.idThe history of Python in 5 mins
