So, I just have to say, I wanted to build wonder on my new Sierra
laptop and of course it did not work. And then, after checking
several things, downloading this and that, checking some other
things, sacrificing a fatted calf and so on and so forth, thinking
about making this work just starting to sound like Beelzebub
howling in my head. Really.
I installed maven, got Hugi's settings.xml file and it just f-ing
worked. Arg! Damn his eyes! :-)
I just thought I should admit, publicly and with appropriate
humility, my interest in making wonder build with ant just
vanished. Sorry. Life is just too short.
Now, figuring out the whole getting my projects to work with it,
we'll see. But I am tired of finding myself messing with
deployment scripts. So who knows.

Thanks
Hugi for the links! I’m definitely going to be
looking into this soon-ish. Goodbye fluffy
bunny.
The wiki is semi-useful, but some of
it is stale and unhelpful. As far as migration of
existing projects goes, follow Hugi’s recipe:
but also take a look at my fork of
that:
They cover some slightly different
areas. Hugi—we really should merge them.
Ah, yes. Most importantly, you mention updating the
“woproject”-folder which I forgot to include.
I also think Hugi’s being modest—once
you’ve done a few, you can probably migrate a
project in under 20 minutes.
In fact I originally wrote “10 minutes” there, but I felt
an hour would sound more believable :).
To "dependency management" and "third
party library integration", I would add
"simplified interaction with Jenkins” as a huge
benefit. Throw out all those workspace setup
scripts: just point Jenkins at your repo and
you’re pretty much done. We’ve been using Maven
for about 6 months, and haven’t looked back.
Not to mention all the other goodies you get by using
maven, stuff like automatic test running, "mvn
versions:display-dependency-updates”, "mvn dependency:tree”
etc.
If you want to live-blog your
experience here on the list, Hugi and I would be
happy to help troubleshoot if you run into any
issues
Indeed!
