Sonar - Native Plugin

[Suhas Saheer]

Hi All,

I have successfully integrate a Java Project with the Sonar Server and was able to view the dashboard.
Now I am trying to integrate C/C++ projects with Sonar.
I read from the net about "native plugin (nar plugin)" and we need to create a nar file
(hence i mentioned <packaging>nar</packaging> in my pom.xml)

But when I try to run 'mvn clean install', it shows BUILD FAILURE with the message
“ Cannot find life cycle mapping for packaging: 'nar'. “

It would be great help if somebody can throw some light into this issue.

Thanks in advance,
Suhas

Maven uses the packaging type to determine how to go about building the artifact. The error means that Maven does not know how to build a "nar" artifact.

What plugin are you using to build the "nar" artifact? Did you remember to add the <extensions> argument to that plugin?

If this doesn't help, please post the pom.xml.

Hi,

I used freehep nar plugin and later i tried with codehaus mojo nar plugin as well.
Both couldn't build.

I did use <extension>true</extension>

Please see below the pom.xml for the freehep plugin

Wait a minute, the pom.xml you posted has this packaging type:

 <packaging>war</packaging>  

Are you sure your posted the correct pom.xml? I expect that your pom.xml would have had this instead:

 <packaging>nar</packaging>  

Also, take the plugins out of the <pluginManagement> section. I think that section is only for submodules, and your pom.xml doesn't have any submodules nor is it configured as a parent POM.
