Generate report PDF with Maven PDF Plugin

[4ndrew]

Hi,

I'd like to generate a PDF file from the results of Maven Surefire Plugin. But when I'm trying to run mvn pdf:pdf its says:

[INFO] Ignoring api call removed in maven 3, no reports are generated!

Any idea would be appreciated! Thx!

the pdf plugin is originally a maven 1 plugin and has not really been
maintained much. You would probably have to fix it up to get it to work ...

This is not correct, the m2 version of the pdf plugin is well-maintained
and working:

http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pdf-plugin/

The mentioned issue above is probably this:

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPDF-41

It's fixed in v. 1.2-SNAPSHOT only, ie not released yet.

Some info about report generation in the pdf plugin is available here:

Sorry to correct myself: it's fixed as being documented that pdf report
generation does not work using maven 3, you need to use maven 2.

Thanks for correcting me. I was not aware of that. Last time I looked it
seemed that but arguably that is quite a while ago.

Sorry again

Thank you! ;)

Another question.

Sadly I can't use Maven2 to generate the test reports but I'd like to solve this issue with Maven3. Can you suggest me anything which is compatible with Maven3 and can be used to generate PDF Test reports and Doc? Any suggestion or hint would be appreciated ;)

Many thanks!!
