Re: [xwiki-devs] Maven set up

Hi all, This is not a XWiki issue, but following the discussion about the Maven version to standardize on XWiki build I am trying to configure a developer environment in a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.5.5. Your help will be really welcome. Thanks! Mac OS X 10.5.x includes Maven 2.0.6 in its base installation. Thus, mvn --version gives... GMXUX-Ricardo-Rodriguez:~ rrodriguez$ mvn --version Maven version: 2.0.6 I've tried to follow the installation instructions in Maven support site to install both (or at least one of them) Maven 2.0.9 and/or Maven 2.1.0 M1 but I am falling at setting the correct environment system wide. It works fine if I export each concerned variable in a given shell, but this only works for this and only this shell window... sh-3.2# export M2_HOME=/usr/local/apache-maven/apache-maven-2.0.9 sh-3.2# export M2=/usr/local/apache-maven/apache-maven-2.0.9/bin sh-3.2# echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin sh-3.2# export PATH=$PATH:$M2 sh-3.2# echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/ apache-maven/apache-maven-2.0.9/bin sh-3.2# mvn --version Maven version: 2.0.9 Java version: 1.5.0_13 OS name: "mac os x" version: "10.5.5" arch: "i386" Family: "unix" sh-3.2# echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/ apache-maven/apache-maven-2.0.9/bin sh-3.2# Please, what method do you use to set M2, M2_HOME and modify PATH to include M2? Is it possible to set them system wide or at least user wide? I've tried a number of methods without success.
