The Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Maven Dependency Plugin, version 2.0-alpha-3
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/ The dependency plugin provides the capability to manipulate artifacts. It can copy and/or unpack artifacts from local or remote repositories to a specified location. This release adds 2 new goals only: dependency:analyze : this executes the maven-dependency-analyzer shared component to look for problems with dependencies. This is an initial release of the analyzer and there are 2 known issues: MDEP-72 and MDEP-73 (trouble with pom projects and projects with non jar dependencies like zip files). dependency:analyze-dep-mgt : this compares the resolved dependencies with the dependencyManagement section to identify mismatches. This is intended to help users identify where transitive dependencies are conflicting with dependencyManagement ahead of the 2.0.6 release. (See http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/analyze-mojo.html for more information). It will also be useful to find out where projects are explicitly overriding dependencyManagement. - The Maven Team --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
