Natalie Burdick commented on MNG-804: ------------------------------------- Please note the the text wrapping is not correct -- should not be so much space after 'repository' and 'issues' use formatting below: In Maven 1.0, the maven.jar.override property allowed users to use artifacts outside the maven local repository. Maven 2 now enforces the best practice of storing all artifacts in a single repository, to optimize performance, reduce storage management requirements and mitigate issues related to building projects that are dependent on a particular user's environment. Please change formatting here: To override a jar's version, enter the dependency's version in the \<dependencyManagement\>. Maven 2.0 uses \<dependencyManagement\> to specify and manage all dependency information. Here is a snippet on how to declare it on the pom.xml. to: To override a jar's version, enter the dependency's version in the \<dependencyManagement\>. Maven 2.0 uses \<dependencyManagement\> to specify and manage all dependency information. Following is a sample showing how to declare dependencies in the pom.xml. Please change formatting to following: Maven 2 uses a goal called install-file from the maven-install-plugin to override files. The install-file goal places the artifact in the local repository. Please refer to {{{http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVENUSER/FAQs}Maven user FAQs}} for more information on this goal. Lastly, you use 'goal' in one place but mechanism in another -- is this technically correct, i.e., are these different, or are they both goals? > maven.jar.override usage in m2 > ------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-804 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-804 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: Sub-task > Components: documentation - general > Reporter: Natalie Burdick > Assignee: Allan Ramirez > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.0.2 > Attachments: m1-m2-changes (revised).txt, m1-m2-changes-b.apt, > m1-m2-changes.apt > > > refer to: > http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/maven-users/200508.mbox/[EMAIL > PROTECTED] > to document that unlike m1, m2 no longer allow jar overrides via the > maven.jar.override property -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
