While there are a number of references for Maven online, there is no single, well-written book that can serve as both a well-worn reference and an introduction. What we've tried to do with this effort is provide both a comprehensive reference and a narrative introduction to Maven. Published by O'Reilly, Maven: The Definitive Guide is written for both new and season Maven users.

"The Maven Archiver is mainly used by plugins to handle packaging. The version numbers referenced in the Since column on this page are the version of the Maven Archiver component - not for any specific plugin. To see which version of Maven Archiver a plugin uses, go to the site for that plugin. "

Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information.

"The WAR Plugin is responsible for collecting all artifact dependencies, classes and resources of the web application and packaging them into a web application archive."

"This page describes how you can get an extended WADL from your REST app. It aligns mostly with the extended-wadl-webapp sample and uses these features: Add additional doc tags to the WADL Create JAXB beans from xsd - you might also create the schema from your beans Add the grammars element that includes the xsd file from which JAXB beans were generated to the WADL Add javadoc from your resource classes to the WADL, using most of the supported javadoc tags For getting the extended WADL as described above these things have to be done: Configure the maven-jaxb-plugin to create JAXB beans from xsd - this is described here just to describe what's done in the sample. Add the application-doc.xml and application-grammars.xml to the build classpath Configure the maven-javadoc-plugin with the ResourceDoclet provided by the wadl-resourcedoc-doclet artifact to create the resource-doc.xml. Create a subclass of WadlGeneratorConfig that defines/configures the WadlGenerators to use Specify your custom WadlGeneratorConfig in the web.xml as the WadlGeneratorConfig"

" Jump to: navigation, search Welcome to our Wiki. This is the Wiki home page for the Buckminster Component Assembly project, an Eclipse Tools sub project. Buckminster is a component resolution & materialization framework. Its purpose is to get software components for you and materialize them in a context of choice, typically a workspace or file system. This applies whether you are looking at what's available on your local machine, within your development organization or in the public open source cloud. Buckminster reuses existing investments in a wide range of build and source management tools - Maven, ANT, CVS, SVN, PDE, etc. It removes ambiguity from component descriptions, enables component sharing and increases productiveness when applied in development, build, assembly and deploy scenarios.

Apache CXF is an open source services framework. CXF helps you build and develop services using frontend programming APIs, like JAX-WS and JAX-RS. These services can speak a variety of protocols such as SOAP, XML/HTTP, RESTful HTTP, or CORBA and work over a variety of transports such as HTTP, JMS or JBI. CXF includes a broad feature set, but it is primarily focused on the following areas: Web Services Standards Support: CXF supports a variety of web service standards including SOAP, the WS-I Basic Profile, WSDL, WS-Addressing, WS-Policy, WS-ReliableMessaging, WS-Security, WS-SecurityPolicy, WS-SecureConverstation, and WS-Trust (partial). Frontends: CXF supports a variety of "frontend" programming models. CXF implements the JAX-WS APIs (TCK compliant). CXF JAX-WS support includes some extensions to the standard that make it significantly easier to use, compared to the reference implementation: It will automatically generate code for request and response bean classes, and does not require a WSDL for simple cases. It also includes a "simple frontend" which allows creation of clients and endpoints without annotations. CXF supports both contract first development with WSDL and code first development starting from Java. For REST, CXF also supports a JAX-RS (TCK compliant) frontend. Ease of use: CXF is designed to be intuitive and easy to use. There are simple APIs to quickly build code-first services, Maven plug-ins to make tooling integration easy, JAX-WS API support, Spring 2.x XML support to make configuration a snap, and much more. Binary and Legacy Protocol Support: CXF has been designed to provide a pluggable architecture that supports not only XML but also non-XML type bindings, such as JSON and CORBA, in combination with any type of transport. To get started using CXF, check out the downloads, the user's guide, or the mailing lists to get more information!

Shrinkwrap provides a simple mechanism to assemble archives like JARs, WARs, and EARs with a friendly, fluent API. JavaArchive archive = ShrinkWrap.create(JavaArchive.class,"archive.jar")    .addClasses(MyClass.class,MyOtherClass.class)    .addResource("mystuff.properties"); From there you may deploy directly into any supported integration container like JBoss EmbeddedAS, GlassFish v3 Embedded, Jetty, or OpenEJB.  Or perhaps you'd like to export the archive to a file or exploded directory structure.  Maybe you'd prefer to serialize it over the network to a remote host.  The possibilities are limitless. To boot, ShrinkWrap is the supported deployment mechanism of the Arquillian project, and together we render the testing of true enterprise components amiable as a puppy.  Where Java EE brought a POJO programming model to application development, we've brought it to testing.  You handle your business logic; we'll do the rest. To foster community participation, the majority of documentation and examples are available through our Wiki. Releases are available either via our Downloads section, or through the JBoss Maven Repository, which we recommend is configured in ${userHomeDir}/.m2/settings.xml:
