ah I see where your going, have you tried the maven users list? that is very much something that would be configured directly in maven, if it can be done like you are shooting for, which I am not to confident would be supported without adding some custom artifact resolvers.

Hi Jesse, Thanks for the reply. I am using SNAPSHOT dependencies between modules. Continuum does generate the SNAPSHOT binaries with a timestamp, and Maven 2 lets developers depend on the latest SNAPSHOT automatically. All that functionality you mention works fine for me. Since the SCM I am using - SVN - does version the repository by revision numbers, I am interested in making the artifact's name also to contain it. Right now, Continuum generates artifacts named like, say, artifact-1.0-20060801.123409-10.jar. Here, the number 10, I think, is the build number. Instead of this, I was hoping that I can get the revision number from SVN. This way, looking at the artifact name I can know precisely where it came from. SVN does a great job of ensuring atomic commits and maintaining revision numbers for the whole repository; it would be a shame not to make use of that. To summarize, I am fine with the way SNAPSHOT builds work in general. All I am looking for is a way to make use of the SVN revision number within the SNAPSHOT version number. Note that for non-SNAPSHOT binaries, I *want* version numbers exactly as mentioned in the POM. :-) Thanks, Binil On 8/1/06, Jesse McConnell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I don't really know of a simple way to do that, there are a couple of > factors at play here.. > > the <version> tag in the pom.xml is what governs the version that is > appended to the artifact for storage in the repository, and that > version doesn't change with scm version numbers anyway that I know of > (of course I could be wrong, there might be a way). > > If you need functionality that can map a version in a repository to a > particular snapshot in time of the scm then I would recommend using > the SNAPSHOTs setup.
