#234 Maven repository unusable under windows

[Eike Hirsch]

Hi everybody,

we have a problem using your parser under windows. The reason is the naming of your maven artifacts.

The parent project is called 'HTMLParser' (in case you didn't know ;). And than there is the module 'htmlparser'. On operating system this would be no problem but on windows it is!
Windows is case insensitive and is unable to create two directories with the 'same' name.

Could you please rename one of your projects?

HTMLParser to HTMLParser-parent
or
htmlparser to htmlparser-core or htmlparser-api

Best regards
Eike

Where does this problem show up?
Maven doesn't seem to hava a problem building it with this organization.
The repository looks OK:

....\.m2\repository>dir org\htmlparser
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 6CEF-165A

Directory of ....\.m2\repository\org\htmlparser

02/23/2007 10:36 PM <DIR> .
02/23/2007 10:36 PM <DIR> ..
02/23/2007 10:36 PM <DIR> filterbuilder
02/23/2007 10:36 PM <DIR> htmllexer

There are two HTMLParser or htmlparser directories on linux.

Change name of top level project to "HTML Parser Project" and artifact id to HTMLParserProject.
