> Key: ARCHETYPE-283
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-283
> Project: Maven Archetype
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-4
> Environment: Windows XP, Maven 2.2.1, maven-archetype-plugin
> 2.0-alpha4
> Reporter: ChristopherC
>
> 'mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=local' always looks in
> ~/.m2/archetype-catalog.xml i.e. it will always look in the
> USER_HOME/archetype-catalog.xml regardless of whether the local repository
> location has been overridden in the settings.xml.
> You can verify this by deleting your archetype-catalog.xml in your home
> directory and creating a new one in a different directory - which you then
> specify in settings.xml e.g.:
> <localRepository>D:\differentrepo</localRepository>
> This will not pick up the archetype when running 'mvn archetype:generate
> -DarchetypeCatalog=local'. Now copy a valid archetype catalog to your home
> directory e.g. ~/.m2/archetype-catalog.xml and run 'mvn archetype:generate
> -DarchetypeCatalog=local' and you will see it is not using the
> localRepository from the settings.xml but somewhere it is hardcoded to use
> the user's home directory /.m2/.
