SigTest - latest version failing

[Kevin Looney]

Hi Mani,

       The correct answer (for right now) is that cloudbees should stop 
producing the maven plugins portion of SigTest.  We are noticing object 
incompatibilities between SigTest (built with JDK9) and Maven plugins 
(built with JDK < 9).  Once OpenJDK 9 is released (and Maven stabilizes 
on JDK 9) we can revisit rebuilding SigTest with Maven plugin.

This is a simple fix on the build to stop building SigTest Maven plugins:

The cloudbees build needs to remove the “mvn2.exe” property from the 
build file:

> + ant build -Djdk5.home=/opt/jdk/jdk1.5.latest 
> -Djdk7.home=/opt/jdk/jdk1.7.latest -Djdk8.home=/opt/jdk/jdk8.latest 
> -Djdk9.home=/scratch/jenkins/workspace/sigtest/jdk-9 
> -Dmvn2.exe=/opt/maven/latest/bin/mvn Buildfile: 
> /scratch/jenkins/workspace/sigtest/build/build.xml

This will complete the rest of the build product without issue.

Thanks Mani, and let us know if you have any questions.

Regards,
Kevin
