Maven import task not starting with startup trigger [message #1730013]

Hello everybody,

i have created my own project cataloge with the setup view including several "git clone" and one "maven import" task.
After the eclipse installation, the startup phase clones my git repos but the import of the maven projects does not happen. Instead, i need to run "Perform setup tasks" manually to trigger the maven import.
In the setup view the Maven import is listed for "startup trigger" and "manual trigger".

Why is the maven import not triggered after the git clone during the startup phase? What am i doing wrong?

Looking forward to your answers.

Heiko

Heiko,

The isNeeded test is like this:

public boolean isNeeded(SetupTaskContext context) throws Exception
{
EList<SourceLocator> sourceLocators = getSourceLocators();
if (sourceLocators.isEmpty())
{
return false;
}

if (context.getTrigger() != Trigger.MANUAL)
{
for (IProject project : ROOT.getProjects())
{
IPath projectFolder = project.getLocation();
for (SourceLocator sourceLocator : sourceLocators)
{
Path rootFolder = new Path(sourceLocator.getRootFolder());
if (rootFolder.isPrefixOf(projectFolder))
{
// In STARTUP trigger don't perform if there's already at
least 1 project from the source locators
return false;
}
}
}
}

return true;
}

So I imagine what you describe could be the case only if the workspace
isn't empty and has a project from one of your git clones already present.

Hello Ed,

I have the same problem.
The thing is that I have a subversion repo where I want to "Checkout as Maven Project" with Oomph.
Unfortunately there is no SVN checkout task so the only way I found is to use a Project Set Import Task to checkout the projects. But after that at least the root project is created in workspace and I don't know any way to prevent this.
So if I run the Maven Import Task afterwards it always skips because of the existing (non-maven) project.
Do you see any solution for this problem?
Is there a possibility to change the isNeeded() method in a way that it only looks on projects with activated Maven nature?

Regards
Leo

I see. But all the task's isNeeded checks are done before any of them
are performed. So for this task, if the workspace is empty, as is the
case initially when creating a new installation for a Project setup, it
should return true.

By after, you mean in the same Project setup as the one that contains
Project Set Import task? And that is doesn't perform during the
first/initial startup?

Is this a problem during initial startup?

Perhaps, but I'm trying to understand why it's a problem at all. In
particular, why isn't the workspace empty initially when isNeeded is
tested the first time, which is even before the Project Set Import task
is performed.

Hello Ed,

ok I see. So my problem is different:
The Maven Import Task is running.
But it skips projects that already exist in the workspace.
Of course, at least the root project exists after the project set import task. And so no maven nature is configured for that project.
What I need is a way to have the same final result as if I choose "Check out as Maven Project..." in SVN perspective.

Leo,

But the Maven import task itself does things like create the .project
file, so I'm not sure that makes sense in such a case. And of course
without specialized SVN integration, we can't replicate this "Check out
action"...
