Update of PlayN from 1.0.1 to 1.0.3 in Eclipse

Question

I installed PlayN 1.0.1 two or three months ago. Now, I would like to 'migrate' to 1.0.3. [reason for the migration: I want to fix that in java callbacks are not asyncronous in 1.0.1]

I already created a clone from https://code.google.com/p/playn-samples . But now, I don't know how to go on. I have my projects in eclipse with maven dependencies like playn- core-1.0.1.jar which are in *.jars like C:/Users//.m2/repository/com/googlecode/playn/playn-core/1.0.1/ playn-core-1.0.1-sources.jar How can I replace them with my *1.0.3.jars? Thank you!

Answer 1

Assuming you created your game using the Maven archetype, then you will have a top-level pom.xml file in your project. In that pom.xml file, you will see a <properties> section that contains:

<playn.version>1.0.1</playn.version>

Assuming you have not made any custom changes to your project POM files, you can simply change the above to 1.0.3.

If you copied one of the sample projects and reworked it as the basis of your own project, you should also have the same <playn.version> property in your top-level pom.xml file.

Assuming that you imported your project into Eclipse using the Import -> Maven -> Existing Maven Projects, then Eclipse will now give you a warning that your projects are out of date with their POM files. You can right click on your project in Eclipse and select Maven -> Update Project Configuration. Then everything will be updated to the latest version.
