Hi there,

I posted this to the maven mailing list, but did not get a response. Forgive
me when I try it here, but it has at least to do with Merlin as I am using
it.

Another newbie question: I've read the introduction to maven as described in
http://maven.apache.org/reference/user-guide.html#Multi_Project_Builds_and_t
he_Reactor. Then I copied from another source a new goal into my maven.xml.

    <goal name="all:java:compile">
        <maven:reactor basedir=".." includes="ch.*/**/project.xml"
goals="java:compile"
            banner="Compiling:" ignoreFailures="false"/>
    </goal>

Build fails with the following messages:
   __  __
  |  \/  |__ _Apache__ ___
  | |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \  ~ intelligent projects ~
  |_|  |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_|  v. 1.0-rc1

  Attempting to download ch.xmatrix.resource-api-1.0.jar.
  WARNING: Failed to download ch.xmatrix.resource-api-1.0.jar.
  Attempting to download ch.xmatrix.gui.splash-api-1.0.jar.
  WARNING: Failed to download ch.xmatrix.gui.splash-api-1.0.jar.
  The build cannot continue because of the following unsatisfied
dependencies:

  ch.xmatrix.resource-api-1.0.jar (no download url specified)
  ch.xmatrix.gui.splash-api-1.0.jar (no download url specified)

My multi-project structure consists of:

  ch.xmatrix.application
  ch.xmatrix.resource-api
  ch.xmatrix.resource-impl
  ch.xmatrix.gui.splash-impl
  ch.xmatrix.gui.splash-api

The two ch.*-apis are dependencies of (the main) application. I hoped that
reactor would sort dependencies out an build these APIs first, as they are
part of my multi-project directory structure. Why does maven -- before
starting the reactor -- try to download these dependent libraries? Instead
of building them?

Thanks for any hints.
Daniel Frey
