I am using a global settings file (sort of! user level settings. I have
them in my .m2/ folder and not in maven/conf/)
It would have been really nice if I could define something like "network
profiles" and I could activate the proxy settings automatically say on
the basis of IP range. But again this only works for proxy stuff. People
working on multiple projects will face issues with things like
repositories / mirrors?
Currently I have settled with two scripts "atwork" and "athome" which
simply switch my settings file.

Heh, that's old school - you actually have two different machines. I
bet many developers today do their work on a single laptop, which
leads to the constant need to change settings, especially if you work
on multiple projects, some professional, some open source ones. One
solution is, if you can, to run your own personal proxy that proxies
everything you need and go through that at all times.

Hmmm. I don't quite see the issue. At home I have a settings.xml file that defines my
environment at home, and at work I have a settings.xml file that defines my environment at
work. I can issue the same "mvn<command>" at home or at work and at home it
doesn't go to a proxy and at work it does. I don't see what issue you are having. There is no
need to switch between settings.xml files.
Are you perhaps saving your settings.xml file with your project in source
control? This may be the problem.
All I do is modify the global settings.xml file in the conf folder of my maven
install. You could put these changes in your local settings.xml file but I
prefer the global settings.xml file as I find configuring which repos to use to
be more global in nature.

Subject: Conveniently switch between settings
Hi,
I use Maven from workplace and home. At workplace we have
proxy as well as a maven repository. Where at home I don't
need any proxy and don't have a repository.
Is there no convenient way to switch between these
configurations other than specifying alternate settings file?
It would be nice if it was at profile level where I could
just say "mvn -P home" I know that there are lot of issue with that.
I hope most of us face this problem. What do you guys do?
Thanks,
Kalpak
