Hello all, I'm only using maven 3 on my machine (be it command line or m2e). I tried to use the maven dependency plugin on a project,
mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.4:purge-local-repository -Dverbose=true -DresolutionFuzziness=version and it printed such warnings : [WARNING] Missing POM for javax.servlet:servlet-api:jar:2.5 [WARNING] Missing POM for org.easymock:easymock:jar:3.0 [WARNING] Missing POM for junit:junit:jar:4.8.2 before telling me that the build was successful. Thing is, it did not purge anything from my repo; because of those warnings actually; launching the same command with -X, I could see : [DEBUG] Verifying availability of /Users/anthony/.m2/repository/javax/servlet/servlet-api/2.5/servlet-api-2.5.pom from [] [WARNING] Missing POM for javax.servlet:servlet-api:jar:2.5: Error resolving project artifact: Could not find artifact javax.servlet:servlet-api:pom:2.5 for project javax.servlet:servlet-api:pom:2.5 [DEBUG] javax.servlet:servlet-api:jar:2.5:provided (selected for provided) and... I can tell you /Users/anthony/.m2/repository/javax/servlet/servlet-api/2.5/servlet-api-2.5.pom exists and contains : <project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId> <artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId> <version>2.5</version> </project> Debugging the code a little, I could notice that this goal was using org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.DefaultArtifactResolver#resolveTransitively from maven-artifact-manager 2.0.9 to find the dependencies. I am wondering if this plugin failed purging my dependencies because it used a maven 2 library to scan the dependencies, and my local repo has only been built and used by mvn3 (and the repo metadata/layout could be different to what this plugin was expecting) .. Any thoughts ? thanks a lot in advance Anthony --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
