Maven NatTable clean+install failure

Question

I'm trying to import and resolve the developer projects for the NatTable project as explained in their Getting Started tutorial.

I'm getting the following error on mvn -f [path to pom] clean install:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.maven.execution.MavenSession.getRepositorySession()Lorg/sonatype/aether/RepositorySystemSession;

More details:

• mvn --version works fine
• %MAVEN_HOME% points to [devel]/maven-3.1.0

Answer 1

The NatTable project seems to have configured the Tycho build extension in a version which is not compatible with Maven 3.1.

Either ask the project to switch to a Tycho version which works with Maven 3.1 (0.18.1 or later), or downgrade your local Maven installation to 3.0.5.

Thank you. May I ask how did you figure that out? – Maccarthy

I happen to be committer on the Tycho project, and we've been notified from the Maven guys about the changes of some internals in Maven 3.1. – Magellan

Answer 2

The NatTable project recently updated to use Maven Tycho 0.19.0.

Thanks for the hint.
