mvn -U is actually the best way because the plugin registry isn't optimal yet (http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-plugin-registry.html) and will be refactored in maven 2.1 and/or 2.2.

File an issue and we'll look at it if possible when we'll implement continuum 
profiles in 1.1

Lee Meador a écrit :
When I want to update maven 2 plugins (normally) I do a "mvn -U <target>"
and all the plugins needed for that target are evaluated and, perhaps,
updated.

I am running Continuum in its own place with its own settings.xml and its
own repository. I can update things by going to a continuum working folder
and running the same target that the working directory is used to build. But
the command line is long with the custom settings.xml.

This could also be an issue if you had a standalone machine (or vm) for
continuum to run in.

I could modify the build in continuum to add the -U and then put it back.

Being lazy, as all good developers, I was wondering if there was a better
way to update the maven plugins and such that continuum is using.
