Maven build for Ivy project

Question

Hello Ivy Team,

Whenever i run command mvn clean install -X (in debug mode) --> I saw the log:


[DEBUG] Starting ivy Engine in D:\...\...\AxonIvyEngine6.3.0
[DEBUG] Engine is running
[INFO] Cleaning sources in [src_dataClasses]

Question 1: why does the build need to start "Ivy Engine" for building the code?

My situation: I have the jenkins build central, whenever alot of project run the build at the same time --> the server get a trouble with memory because alot of Ivy Engine are started.

Question 2: when I build my Ivy project --> why is the iar file include the source code inside the package?

Thanks for answer my question!

Accepted Answer

Q1: because the code is not compiled as you might expect with JAVAC but with the JDT from eclipse. The good thing about it, the compiler operates in the exact same way as the designer. While JAVAC has now clue about OSGi dependencies and other stuff in our environment

Q2: currently sources are included because IARs could also be used and produced with the Designer. And normal Designer IARs include all you need to edit the project - so sources as well. If you don't like this behaviour, feel free to exclude the sources by configuring custom exclusions: http://axonivy.github.io/project-build-plugin/release/7.0/pack-iar-mojo.html#iarExcludes
