Maven Plugins 0.2.5 – Artifactory Online, Maven Central!
Today I’m very excited to announce the availability of Maven Plugins v0.2.5! This version is not a regular update: it contains a great deal of infrastructural changes which I’ve been considering and working on for the past six months. Here it goes: My Artifactory repository has moved from evgeny-goldin.org/artifactory to Artifactory Online at evgenyg.artifactoryonline.com. What [...]
Maven build progress with TeamCity Service Messages
When you run a lengthy Maven build configuration in TeamCity it may be tricky to know what module is being built right now since all TeamCity displays is either “Running” or “Tests passed: X”. Luckily, TeamCity allows your build script to interact with the server using Service Messages. When you build script prints out the [...]
Maven Build Dependencies
This post is the first in a series of three blog posts dedicated to build dependencies. Part 1 – Maven Build Dependencies. Part 2 – TeamCity Build Dependencies.

Maven Plugins v0.2.1 – re-written and open-sourced!
A “0.1″ release of these Maven plugins back in November brought a lot of attention to the project, which showed me that other Maven developers find them as useful as I do. Later, people started to send me new suggestions and open YouTrack issues which I had an extreme pleasure to work on. Version “0.2.1″ [...]

Neat Delicious trick – keywords combination

Within time I developed a set of the most frequently-used keywords in the right column that can be combined with tags in the left column: “hudson” – Mailing list – “ml” “spring” – Issue [...]
Configuration Management position – can be done by anyone. Or can it?
Configuration Management was always my passion. Somehow, I have always had this thing for builds. I don’t know why, it just happens to be that way. Over the last 10 years I have accepted various development positions, but very few were actually related to CM. Occasionally, I accepted CM tasks for the joy of it. [...]
Spring: Ant-like files pattern matching
Spring Batch job definition: “${path}/some.*.pattern.zip” is right, I can guarantee that. Double-checked! So why Spring Batch complaints “No resources to read” and does nothing? Argh .. probably, has something to do with files pattern matching. All right, I was curious about Ant-like files pattern matching in non-Ant environments for a long time already. How one [...]
