deploy non-Java (C++ DLL) to artifactory

[Jonathan Bergh]

hi there,

We have a problem where we are trying to deploy non-Java artifacts to
Artifactory for inclusion in a Java application install.

We are using Jenkins and Gradle for the CI system, and the gradle 'cpp'
plugin to build the C++ libraries for the project.

Having gotten the following message (and not DLL's deployed), we have
included the Maven gradle plugin (and are also manually creating a POM) but
we think the Maven 'install' task is missing because we are running this
together with the 'cpp' plugin.

Does anyone know if this is the correct dianogsis and if so, whether there
is a workaround for this? Or perhaps we are doing it entirely incorrectly?

Many thanks in advance for any advice,
Regards
Jonathan

You do not specify which version of Artifactory you are using. The free version does not store anything other than jars and tars. Artifactory wants big $$ for more than that.
