You can have SNAPSHOT in your <version/>, we use it like that. with <version>1-0-SNAPSHOT</version>: jar:install -> puts myjar-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar in the local repository jar:install-snapshot -> puts myjar-SNAPSHOT.jar in the local repository
with <version>1.0</version>: jar:install -> puts myjar-1.0.jar in the local repository jar:install-snapshot -> puts myjar-SNAPSHOT.jar in the local repository If your project depends on a version that has SNAPSHOT in it (so either 1.0-SNAPSHOT and SNAPSHOT work), it will be checked for every build if it has not changed in the remote or local repository. Remember that maven always uses the version in the local repository. So if module B depends on 1.0-SNAPSHOT of module A, and you change something to module A, then you need to call jar:install on module A. Otherwise module B will not see the changes. hth, Wim On 4/14/05, Durham David R Jr Contr 805 CSPTS/SCE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > SNAPSHOT makes a lot of sense in a multiproject context. > > > > From what I understand, you should never set the version to SNAPSHOT > > in your <version/> tag. you should rather use something along the > > line of > > artifact:install-snapshot (local repo) > > artifact:deploy-snapshot (global repo) > > which will tag your current "release" as SNAPSHOT. > > Yeah, I thought the same thing about install-snapshot, but according to: > > http://maven.apache.org/using/bestpractices.html#Project_Development_Cyc > le > > You should also change the currentVersion to nextVersion-SNAPSHOT. > > > your SNAPSHOTdependencies will then be resolved. > > Actually, SNAPSHOT dependencies do get resolved, however, maven will > first try to get the SNAPSHOT from the repository (makes sense outside > of the multiproject context), even though it exists locally.
