This is kind of a chicken and egg thing...I'm trying to find a way to figure out my top level dependencies before I can use maven.

You only need to enter the top level dependencies, and it will gather the rest for you (assuming each of those dependencies is already known in the repository). You can then output that tree using -X and see what you get, much like the format you described. If you are uncertain of the versions you had, the md5 trick will help you verify you are getting what you used to. - Brett On 10/12/05, Jason van Zyl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, 2005-10-11 at 16:02 -0400, Brian E.
