Sadly, when I do "mvn -DdownloadSources=true install", no source jars get downloaded to the maven local repo. For commons-io and commons-fileupload, the sources are present at http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/commons-io/commons-io/1.4/ (and correspondingly for commons-fileupload), but it does not find its way to local repo. Only class-jars get downloaded. Surprisingly, if I did "idea:idea -DdownloadSources=true", in addition to generating the IDEA project, it downloads those -sources.jar files! So, it seems that maven-idea-plugin takes this -DdownloadSources=true into account correctly, whereas standard install plugin ignores it. dchicks wrote: > > Sometimes, there is no source jar available for a given dependency.

In NetBeans 6.5, it was not evident. -Kedar -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-debug-download-dependency-source-code-using-mvn-...-tp20641814p20642626.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]
