This command is used to deploy the artifact to the remote repository. The remote repository should be configured properly in the project pom.xml file distributionManagement tag. The server entries in the maven settings.xml file is used to provide authentication details.

More than one profile can be active at a time. A profile can be "activated" by declaring it so (see Active by Default below) or by specifying it in the list of active profiles in settings.xml, or via other methods. For more details see Activating a Profile below.


The list contains elements, where each element contains a profile id. Any profile referred here will be active regardless of any environment settings. If no matching profile is found, nothing will happen. If the profiles mentioned here are not found, the execution will continue as normal.


This is the most common method and probably the one you are already following. Essentially, you go the list or library where you want to create metadata, go to, say, library settings, create columns with whatever column types you require, and you are pretty much done. For the purpose of this blog post, I am not going to go into details on how to do this as I have previously documented step by step instructions on how to do this.


The mavenSW "help:effective-pom" goal can be used to display the effective pomW of a project. The effective pom represents the current pom state for a project. This isn't just the project's pom, but it also factors in things like the maven super pom and active profiles.


Name:mvn helpeffective-pomLocation:C:\dev\apache-maven-2.0.8\bin\mvn.batWorking Directory:$project_locArguments:help:effective-pom


Checks the Oracle home you have provided and makes a list of all of the Maven artifacts inside that Oracle home. This is done by looking for Project Object Model files in the ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/plugins/maven dependencies directory and its subdirectories, recursively, and in the ORACLE_HOME/PRODUCT_HOME/plugins/maven directory and its subdirectories recursively for each PRODUCT_HOME that exists in the ORACLE_HOME.


Atlassian Maven supplies artifacts for Atlassian Plugin Developers. You should use the Atlassian Plugin SDK to ensure your settings are always up to date. Previously packages were available from maven.atlassian.com, but this is now deprecated.


This can happen when invoking a plugin from the command line by giving only its prefix instead of its group and artifact id, e.g. in mvn help:effective-pom the token help is the plugin prefix and can serve as an abbreviation of org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-help-plugin. Resolution of a plugin prefix can fail for a couple of reasons:


When using Gradle Enterprise Maven extension version


1) Declare the com.atlassian.maven.plugins pluginGroup in .m2/settings.xml to ensure that Maven will not try to resolve 'clover' goals to a very old Clover 2.4 (org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-clover-plugin). 2ff7e9595c
