The main thing that you need to bear in mind is that JPOX jars are present in
JPOX own Maven repository so all you need to do is point your Maven2 project at
this repository. You do this by including the following in your pom.xml
<project>
...
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>JPOX_Repos</id>
<name>JPOX Repository</name>
<url>http://www.jpox.org/downloads/maven</url>
<layout>legacy</layout>
</repository>
<repository>
<id>JPOX_Repos2</id>
<name>JPOX Repository</name>
<url>http://www.jpox.org/downloads/maven2</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
<pluginRepositories>
<pluginRepository>
<id>JPOX_2</id>
<url>http://www.jpox.org/downloads/maven2/</url>
</pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>
</project>
So this make the JPOX Maven1 and Maven2 repositories available, and also
makes the JPOX Maven2 plugin available.
Now that you have the JPOX jars available to you, via the repositories, you
want to perform JPOX operations. The primary operations are enhancement
and SchemaTool (for RDBMS). To run the enhancer you do
If you want this to be done automatically after compiling then you should add the following
into your pom.xml
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>jpox</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jpox-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<configuration>
<mappingIncludes>**/*.jdo, **/*.class</mappingIncludes>
<log4jConfiguration>${basedir}/log4j.properties</log4jConfiguration>
<verbose>true</verbose>
<enhancerName>ASM</enhancerName>
<props>${basedir}/JPOX.properties</props>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>compile</phase>
<goals>
<goal>enhance</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugin>
</build>
</project>
So whenever compile takes place it then does an enhance using the JPOX Maven2
plugin.
SchemaTool is achieved similarly, via
