Support multiple Minecraft versions with abstraction/maven

drtshock was going to do that, but I think he's currently busy judging ten.java .

 

Happy birthday!

 

I have updated the example github repository to utilize more recent code, and have removed the pre-refactor info from the thread, because supporting 1.4 is silly at this point.

 

Having issues getting this to work in Eclipse...
I'm always receiving the following error on importing:

Path must include project and resource name: /

DerFlash
Any idea?
Since you mentioned that you want to use Eclipse, too.

Thanks for any hint,

xGhOsTkiLLeRx When I do this in Eclipse I don't load it as a maven project but instead as a normal java project. Might require telling Eclipse (in the build path settings) what folders are 'source' folders, but then all is well.

 

mbaxter Well then my eclipse doens't like the pom.xml for each module.
Any clue how you did solve this?

 

xGhOsTkiLLeRx Not using m2eclipse?

 

mbaxter I am using m2e

However, nailed it down:

in the "regular" pom.xml that ships all the information about version, dependencies etc the following line is causing issues:

Code:

<build>
    ...
    ...
    <directory>../../target</directory>
    ...
    ...
</build>

Setting it to

Code:

<build>
    ...
    ...
    <directory>target</directory>
    ...
    ...
</build>

solves the problem.
Strange, I know.

Sir Jenkins and mvn command line are fine with ../../ however.
Just another reason why eclipse with plugins is great

 

awe man, I wanted to make a 1.2.5 server

 

mbaxter, thanks for such an awesome tutorial. Here are two more examples that people can look over (if they want more examples):
https://github.com/Europia79/Extraction
https://github.com/Europia79/VirtualPlayers
They integrate easily with the Netbeans IDE. Don't know about Eclipse or Intelli-J tho.

I've got a plugin setup with a few NMS modules (used with permission) from dhutils and I've got all the directories set up similar to how you have your modules in TagAPI, with a module to reference the rest of the plugin in "modules/". Right now, when I build the plugin via 'mvn clean package' it creates a working plugin with the correct directory structure, and the only problem I'm having is that when writing code, my IDE doesn't recognize Bukkit as a dependency even with this in the pom.xml in modules/<pluginname>/:

Code:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.bukkit</groupId>
  <artifactId>bukkit</artifactId>
  <version>1.7.9-R0.2</version>
  <type>jar</type>
  <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

Do I need to create a pom.xml somewhere else? Manually put it on the Build Path in my IDE? Add something else to the pom.xml?

Thanks in advance.

 

mythbusterma I have no idea. Depends entirely on your IDE. IntelliJ handles these things (mostly) alright.

I think it's with maven, because when I use maven -> download sources, it doesn't download anything for the maven dependencies.

 

mythbusterma
your sure the hierachy in your pom is still correct?

bukkit on top
craftbukkit under the bukkit dependcy

it actually works exactly like the normal non maven dependcy system, if craftbukkit is on top it makes problems.

 

xize

It doesn't recognize either

 

mythbusterma

The only thing I would think is that the repo in your pom where it should download the dependcies is wrong.

you could do a attempt to remove the lines with <scope> I don't know how maven handles it when provided is used in cases of corruption/reconnects etc.

 

Please do not suggest people change their scope to the wrong one. Provided is the correct choice for Bukkit/CraftBukkit.
