[fedora-java] XMvn 1.4.0 release notes
What's new in XMvn 1.4.0
XMvn 1.4.0 was released on 2013-12-09. Most important changes
include:
* Minor features
* Limited support for absolute JPP artifact files
Artifact files specified as absolute paths pointing to arbitrary
locations are now allowed. They are implemented as symbolic
links which are pointing to the primary artifact file, which
must be explicitly specified as non-absolute file.
Appropriate suffixes are added depending on artifact version,
classifier and extension. As absolute symlinks can be placed at
any location, configured repositories are not taken into account
and flat repository layout is always assumed.
Absolute symlinks are only created for artifact files and
attached artifacts, but not for POM files. Absolute files for
artifacts with no files (i.e. POM artifacts) are silently
ignored.
* Minor bugfixes
* Fix NullPointerException bug in installer code
* Allow file installation in root directory
XMvn was unable to install files in root directory because of
false assumption that every directory has a parent. This was
fixed in version 1.4.0.
