RE: Why is maven trying to download installed jars?
A question here... Let's say that my project depends on project A that depends on project B. Project A has a correct pom but project B does not. Can I do something that makes maven generate a pom for project B when looking for dependencies? /Ludwig -Original Message- From: anders.g.ham...@gmail.com [mailto:anders.g.ham...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Anders Hammar Sent: den 25 maj 2010 06:48 To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: Why is maven trying to download installed jars? Please remember that this generated minimal pom just holds the required GAV info. There is no info about dependencies, which makes it...well, minimal. Maven will then not be able to help you with transitive deps and dependency management. So, you should always create a correct pom (including dependency info) IMO. /Anders On Mon, May 24, 2010 at 23:13, Wayne Fay wayne...@gmail.com wrote: So is this flag (generatePom) not default because of a bug or should I just add it every time I add file to the repository?

Re: Why is maven trying to download installed jars?
No, there is currently no such feature out-of-the-box. There are several tools that can help you though. I use CDA ( http://www.dependency-analyzer.org) and jaranalyzer ( http://www.kirkk.com/main/Main/JarAnalyzer). /Anders On Tue, May 25, 2010 at 09:26, Ludwig Magnusson lud...@itcatapult.comwrote: A question here...

Re: Why is maven trying to download installed jars?
Thank you Wendy! It worked like a charm. So is this flag (generatePom) not default because of a bug or should I just add it every time I add file to the repository?
