Hi, does anybody ever had the need, given a resource name (i.e.: a class name), to know which maven2 artifact(s), and in which versions, contain that resource?
So, essentially just a maven2 repository(or repositeries) inverted index (resource name->[artifacts list with versions]) , that could be useful also for an IDE perhaps: you write a class name in the code, the autocompletion looks into the compile classpath, if it can't find it anywhere, it queries the inverted index and eventually suggests to add a dependency to the pom.xml ... Unnecessary and stupid idea (maybe caused by the tropical weather in Rome)? Or is it an already existing service? Well, let me know something :-) -- Alessio Pace. http://www.jroller.com/page/alessiopace
