Why don't use SNAPSHOT version for your dependency and on a local server store the jar who can't be in ibiblio. It seem to be the way method to have latest version than storing them in CVS. With maven i think that lib don't have to be in CVS because it have a mechanism to find them automaticly.
Nicolas [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/12/2003 12:33 Veuillez répondre à "Maven Users List" Pour : Maven Users List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc : Objet : The Dependencies are stored in CVS : Preparing Maven Repository Beforehand ??? Hi all, I barely remember that somebody mentioned this subject but I can find the thread anymore. The subject is about how do we handle our dependencies, if they are stored in the CVS and every build gets a clean version of the whole project from CVS. (I use explicitly CVS to avoid the word repository that use later to refer to MAven repository). Let's say that any project contains a folder called: \lib where all the dependencies are stored and refered from project.xml. Any developer is asked to keep uptodate the libraries they are using. In my case, I have to kick off an external script to move all the libraries refered in the project.xml to the corresponding location in the Maven repository. This script is kicked off before I can run maven on the project. Maven will expect to find all the dependencies in project.xml in the maven repository. In previous projects, we used Maven central repository to store and provide all the dependencies and it was updated by a single person (project manager). If you wanted to get the latest version, you only needed to clean your local repository and maven retrieved them again from the central repository (remote repository). Now, the current project mandates to store the dependencies in CVS. I wonder whether the way I am currently handling the dependencies is the most appropiate way or whether there is other ones.
