Maven release

[Rebzie]

Hi

Just wondering if there is going to be a maven release. There is another project which has published to maven but not for 2 years and the naming isn't standard
https://github.com/eskatos/org.json-java/releases

Maven support has been proposed before and declined. For example, #46, #35, #21, etc. I don't expect that to change anytime soon.

I think this request is a little different than those, I believe Rebzie is requesting that a jar be pushed to Maven Central or other repo to be included as a library in a project.

We wouldn't need a full POM for that or project structure. Just a pom to list the artifact and any dependencies (which there are none)

Something like this should be good enough:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<!-- required attributes -->
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
  <groupId>org.json</groupId>
  <artifactId>json-java</artifactId>
  <version>2015-05-19</version>
  <packaging>pom</packaging> <!-- or <packaging>jar</packaging> -->
<!-- optional attributes -->

</project>

Thanks for clarifying, I missed that. No such plans that I am aware of.

If you pull it #131 would fix that automatically.

[johnjaylward]

no, it won't be automatic. You still need publishing keys or "approved" hosting and release information for it to be automatic.

Sorry for not getting back to this sooner. At the present time this project does not include support for any particular build tool.
