The easiest way is to rename project2's jar file to project2-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar and copy it to <user home dir>/.m2/repository/com.mydomain/project2/1.0-SNAPSHOT/
I'm not that familier with maven 2 myself, but i believe you also have to change the scope to provided for both dependency entries (the project1 entry in project2's pom.xml and the project2 entry in project1's pom.xml). Otherwise, it will detect the cyclic dependency and fail. Of course, you may want to try defining the parent pom.xml first. Maven *may* be smart enough to figure out what you need from that (I don't know, i've never tried). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2005 3:15 PM To: users@maven.apache.org Subject: [M2] Cyclical Dependencies I am very new to maven and have decided to start off with Maven 2. I have two projects and both projects depend upon each other to compile... Directory Structure C:\tmp\project1 pom.xml src\main\java\com... ClassA.java, ClassB.java C:\tmp\project2 pom.xml src\main\java\com... ClassC.java, ClassD.java Class A uses ClassD Class B uses ClassC I do not yet have a master pom.xml defined yet that contains the module definitions... I was trying to get the individual projects to compile first before I create the master pom.xml file. <modules> <module>project1</module> <module>project2</module> </modules> When defining the pom.xml file for each project I use the snapshot for the dependency and since I can't get either project to compile, I can't generate the snapshots.. project1's pom.xml file contains <dependency> <groupId>com.mydomain</groupId> <artifactId>project2</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> project2's pom.xml file contains <dependency> <groupId>com.mydomain</groupId> <artifactId>project1</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> How can I get a project to compile when the dependant snapshot can't be generated because of cyclical dependencies? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this transmission is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the designated recipients named herein.
