Versions 1.x were +made for Maven 1 and therefore we are not compatible with those. + + In the NAR Plugin 2.x series we had to introduce some backward incompatibilites and other changes. +Below a (rather incomplete) list. + +* Version 2.1.x + + * The internal layout of the nar files (.nar extension) is stable. No changes were made. + + * The layout of the files under target and under the unpacked directory has changed. For more +information see NarLayout21 (version 2.1.x and up) and NarLayout20 (version 2.0.x). + + * The dependency in 2.0 used to be without a <type> specified. You now need to specify <type>nar</type> +as this is more in line with the standard of maven. It also allows the NAR plugin to find dependencies +locally in a multi-module build. + + * The main artifact is a jar file, where the NAR plugin attaches a -noarch nar file and some +platform specific nar files. When installed and or deployed the main jar file is renamed to a nar file, +hence the dependecy type change from jar to nar. + + [] + |
