Meister Setup

The Meister Ant War Build Method includes the logic to integrate with Archiva.  The following PERL Modules must be installed, Frontier::Client, Frontier::RPC2 and LWP::Simple for the Ant War Build Method to run correctly.  This integration allows Archiva to be used without changing any Targets or Build Services.  Targets that use Build Services: Java War, Java Weblogic War, Java War as Jar, Java War from Filter, Java Weblogic War, Java Weblogic WLI War, or Java Websphere War, will automatically place the transitive runtime dependencies into the WEB-LIB/lib folder in the war archive when Archiva interface is enabled.   Any .jar or .zip listed as a dependency to the Target will be interrogated against Archiva for transitive dependencies.  For example, a jar listed as a Set Classpath dependency in the Target will be queried against Archiva for transitive dependencies.  Also, a jar listed as a dependency in the WEB-INF/lib option group will queried against Archiva.

To enable the Archiva integration the following environment variables must be used.  These environment variables can be defined at the machine system level, Workflow level or passed in as parameters to om.
