My work-around is similar: I have removed the locally built SNAPSHOT
artifacts from my local repository. Furthermore I have separated the
artifacts to include in the JNLP from the maven modules that creates the
JNLP into other modules, actually under its own {trunk,tags,branches}. The
Hudson job that builds the JNLP has its own private local repository, so
that the artifacts are downloaded from the remote Nexus repository where
they have been deployed by another Hudson job. Does this sound clear?In this setup the SNAPSHOT strings are always expanded in the <version-id> elements in the version.xml in the JNLP. And the JWS caching works perfect! New versions of jar-files are always downloaded and jar-files that have not changed (Spring, Hibernate, actually by far the most) are not downloaded again! 2010/3/30 Holger Brands <[email protected]> > > Hi, > > I'm having the same problem. > Further analysis shows that the problem is related to the contents of the > local repo. > If it already contains a snapshot artifact having a metadata entry (in > maven-metadata-local.xml) > with localCopy=true, then the SNAPSHOT version is not expanded in > "version.xml" or the jnlp file. > If there is no snapshot artifact in the local repo or the metadata entry > doesn't contain > the localCopy=true statement, the version is correctly expanded. > > I think the localCopy=true metadata is created in your local repo, if you > deploy a new snapshot > to a remote snapshot repo. > > So as a workaround, after deploying a new snapshot, you've to cleanup the > snapshots in your local repo first. > > Is there a recommended way to purge snapshots from the local repo? > > Or is this a bug in the webstart plugin that could be fixed soon? > > Thanks, > Holger > > > > Eric Malotaux wrote: > > > > Hi, > > > > When I include SNAPSHOT dependencies in my jnlp file with the > > jnlp-download-servlet mojo, the SNAPSHOT version is not expanded into a > > timestamp plus version string in the "version.xml" file.
