Hi Simon, Thx for the reply. I did define a custom pom, that declared the dependencies, e.g.
common_dependencies.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.foo</groupId> <artifactId>common-dependencies</artifactId> <packaging>pom</packaging> <version>1.0</version> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>log4j</groupId> <artifactId>log4j</artifactId> <version>1.2.12</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>axis</groupId> <artifactId>axis</artifactId> <version>1.3</version> <scope>compile</scope> </dependency> ... </project> but when I deploy this pom to the internal repository the dependencies are stripped out and I am left with: <project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.foo</groupId> <artifactId>common-dependencies</artifactId> <packaging>pom</packaging> <version>1.0</version> </project> If I install the pom to my local repository all the dependency declarations are still there. I cannot figure out how to install the pom to the internal repository with the dependency declarations. Also, thx for your insight on why this approach may be problematic. Can you suggest a more appropriate approach for sharing common libraries across several projects. For example, all the projects are going to use log4J so it seems like it should be automatically made available to all of them. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Deploy-pom-with-dependencies-to-internal-repository-tp16258021s177p16259983.html Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
