POM documentation for repository structure looks out of date ------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-2085 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2085 Project: Maven 2 Type: Bug Components: Documentation: Guides Versions: 2.0.2 Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship The POM documentation, at http://maven.apache.org/maven-model/maven.htm, is out of date w.r.t the structure of the remote repository. This element describes all of the dependencies associated with a project. Each dependency is described by a <code>dependency</code> element, which is then described by additional elements (described below). These dependencies are used to construct a classpath for your project during the build process. Maven can automatically download these dependencies from a <a href="/user-guide.html#Remote%20Repository%20Layout">remote repository</a>. <p> The filename that Maven downloads from the repository is <code>artifactId-version.jar</code> where <code>artifactId</code> corresponds to the <code>artifactId</code> element and <code>version</code> corresponds to the <code>version</code> element. </p> <p> When Maven goes looking for a dependency in the remote repository, it uses the dependency element to construct the URL to download from. This URL is defined as: </p> <div class="source"> <pre>${repo}/${groupId}/${type}s/${artifactId}-${version}.${type}</pre> </div> <p> Where </p> <dl> <dt>repo</dt> <dd> is the remote repository URL specified by <code>${maven.repo.remote}</code> </dd> <dt>groupId</dt> <dd>is taken from the dependency element</dd> <dt>type</dt> <dd>is taken from the dependency element</dd> <dt>artifactId</dt> <dd>is taken from the dependency element</dd> <dt>version</dt> <dd>is taken from the dependency element</dd> </dl> For Maven 2, this looks very different. Looks like the docs were copied from Maven 1? -- 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]
