I’m now trying to deploy the artifacts to a shared repository with the in-vm deployer.
Our repository is not exposed via HTTP, instead is accessed as a network share using a file://... repository URL. The new deployer fail instantly with an ArtifactTransferException. Probably this is an edge case, with the previous deployer I was able to successful deploy the artifacts (probably because it relies on standard mvm commands). This is the exception stack trace: Installing Artifact: com.adobe.air:compiler:3.9 - File with extension pom org.eclipse.aether.deployment.DeploymentException: Failed to deploy artifacts: Could not transfer artifact com.adobe.air:compiler:pom:3.9 from/to repo (file:///Volumes/Area\ Sviluppatori/m2-repository): /Volumes/Area\ Sviluppatori/m2-repository/com/adobe/air/compiler/3.9/compiler-3.9.pom (No such file or directory) at org.eclipse.aether.internal.impl.DefaultDeployer.deploy(DefaultDeployer.java:341) at org.eclipse.aether.internal.impl.DefaultDeployer.deploy(DefaultDeployer.java:269) at org.eclipse.aether.internal.impl.DefaultRepositorySystem.deploy(DefaultRepositorySystem.java:413) at SDKInVMDeployer.processArtifact(SDKInVMDeployer.java:214) at SDKInVMDeployer.processDir(SDKInVMDeployer.java:152) at SDKInVMDeployer.processDir(SDKInVMDeployer.java:161) at SDKInVMDeployer.processDir(SDKInVMDeployer.java:161) at SDKInVMDeployer.processDir(SDKInVMDeployer.java:161) at SDKInVMDeployer.processDir(SDKInVMDeployer.java:161) at SDKInVMDeployer.processDir(SDKInVMDeployer.java:161) at SDKInVMDeployer.start(SDKInVMDeployer.java:137) at SDKInVMDeployer.main(SDKInVMDeployer.java:89) Caused by: org.eclipse.aether.transfer.ArtifactTransferException: Could not transfer artifact com.adobe.air:compiler:pom:3.9 from/to repo (file:///Volumes/Area\ Sviluppatori/m2-repository): /Volumes/Area\ Sviluppatori/m2-repository/com/adobe/air/compiler/3.9/compiler-3.9.pom (No such file or directory) at org.eclipse.aether.connector.basic.ArtifactTransportListener.transferFailed(ArtifactTransportListener.java:43) at org.eclipse.aether.connector.basic.BasicRepositoryConnector$TaskRunner.run(BasicRepositoryConnector.java:342) at org.eclipse.aether.connector.basic.BasicRepositoryConnector.put(BasicRepositoryConnector.java:271) at org.eclipse.aether.internal.impl.DefaultDeployer.deploy(DefaultDeployer.java:335) ... 11 more Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /Volumes/Area\ Sviluppatori/m2-repository/com/adobe/air/compiler/3.9/compiler-3.9.pom (No such file or directory) at java.io.FileOutputStream.open(Native Method) at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:194) at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:145) at org.eclipse.aether.transport.file.FileTransporter.implPut(FileTransporter.java:85) at org.eclipse.aether.spi.connector.transport.AbstractTransporter.put(AbstractTransporter.java:117) at org.eclipse.aether.connector.basic.BasicRepositoryConnector$PutTaskRunner.runTask(BasicRepositoryConnector.java:578) at org.eclipse.aether.connector.basic.BasicRepositoryConnector$TaskRunner.run(BasicRepositoryConnector.java:337) ... 13 more 2013/11/20 Cosma Colanicchia <cosma...@gmail.com> > I have created the FDKs for 4.11 (with the latest AIR and FP versions, and > all options checked) from Windows and from Mac, and tried to diff out the > two folders. > > I see that there are a lot of changes, some of which are expected: > - /bin (adl vs adl.exe, adt vs adt.exe) > - /android/lib binaries (aapt vs aapt.exe, additional dlls for win) > - /lib/aot binaries > - /lib/nai binaries > - /runtimes > - a lot of differences in text files (xml, xsd and some sources), maybe > due to line breaks? > - many differences in swc and jar binary files (maybe the installer is > downloading different binary packages created with different build run?) > > Then I run the mavenizer, and compared the output: the swc and jar > differences are clearly still there, but the file set is identical (no > additional file or artifacts are generated). > > So, it seems that the mavenized version is actually the same when > generated from a mac/win FDK.
