Brett Porter commented on MNG-3588: ----------------------------------- sorry, all I meant was has the setting you are trying to use worked in a previous version of Maven in your experience? If you do wish to write a test case that exhibits a problem, the instructions are here: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Creating+a+Maven+Integration+Test > ${maven.repo.local} in settings.xml doesn't work. > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-3588 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3588 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.9 > Reporter: Marcin Kuthan > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.0.x > > > I can't use ${maven.repo.local} parameter inside settings.xml file.
