Changes Vincent Massol Add all user jars that have been marked to be included in the cactus test (with the <cactus.bundle>true</cactus.bundle> property in dependencies). For example, DBUnit would be a jar you would include in a Cactus test but not in a runtime war. Updated to Cactus/Ant of 19th of June 2003 which fixes a bug preventing JBoss to start correctly on unix machines (caused by an invalid URL file format on unix. Thanks to Chris Lenz for fixing it. The cactus:compile goal now correctly copy the non java files to the target class directory. Thanks to Florin Vancea for reporting this bug. This fixes bug MAVEN-478. Major change: updated to use the Cactus/Ant integration built after 23rd of May 2003 (it is completely different from the Cactus/Ant integration used in version 2.0. Complete rework of the plugin to use the Cactus/Ant Integration module from the Cactus project. Now using Cactus 1.5dev for J2EE 1.3, built from CVS on 7th of April 2003. Thus the Plugin feature are now those of the Cactus/Ant Integration module. Upgraded scripts to work with Maven beta 8. Checkstyle fixes for included Sample webapp. Add new target cactus:test that runs tests for all containers with a maven.cactus.[container].home property set. cactus:single now builds all the code and then runs the testcase specified by the property mavencactustestcase. Example maven cactus:single -Dmavencactustestcase=com.my.company.EasyTest. Commented out dvsl merging of web.xml due to changes in Maven. Instead uses either included default web.xml or one provided by maven.cactus.webxml. Added Checkstyle report to Cactus plugin web site. The plugin now works even if not connected to the internet. Fixed problem when the web.xml of the application to test was defining security configuration. The Cactus was adding its own but the web.xml DTD only supports one. The new implementation discards the application security information which is replaced by the Cactus definition. Added support for HttpUnit integration out of the box (i.e. the HttpUnit jars are automatically added by the Cactus plugin). Ability to exclude Cactus tests (for long running tests for example, in debug period). The web.xml elements required for Cactus are now automatically added to the user project web.xml. Added support for running the tests using the JUnit Swing Test Runner. Simply create the following Maven property maven.cactus.testrunner = swing to use the Swing Test Runner. Added automatic discovery of Cactus Test Cases and ignore test support classes. Creation of the project war/webapp is now left to the Maven War plugin. Cactus repackages it by adding the Cactus tests, the Cactus configuration files and the Cactus external jars. Thus, the Cactus plugin now supports the "war:webapp" goal. Improved documentation: "news" section on front page and improved "Quick Start" page. Support for WebLogic 7.x. Sample project showing how to use the Cactus plugin. Generates HTML reports Support for Resin 2.x. Support for Tomcat 4.x (supports hot redeploy). Creation of the Cactus plugin
