[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE-166?page=comments#action_70877 ] Olle Hallin commented on MNGECLIPSE-166: ----------------------------------------
Sorry for the confusion. Our company uses roaming profiles + redirected user folders. C:\Documents and Settings\olle.hallin is redirected to \\SOMESERVER\SOMESHARE. I have redefined m2eclipse's local repository folder to be C:\download\maven2\repository, which deliberately is outside C:\Documents and Settings. This is the same folder as our $MAVEN2_HOME/conf/settings.xml has defined as local repo. Despite that, m2eclipse still uses <user.home>/.m2, which points to C:\Documents and Settings\olle.hallin\.m2 (which is redirected to \\SOMESERVER\SOMESHARE). So the net result is that my local Maven repository is stored in \\SOMESERVER\SOMESHARE. An consequence of that is that login+logout take ages, since Windows must synchronize my local Maven repository everytime. (Today my <user.home>\.m2 contains 2000+ jars!) > The local repository directory setting in the options does not seem to be > used. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNGECLIPSE-166 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE-166 > Project: Maven 2.x Extension for Eclipse > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Repository Management > Affects Versions: 0.0.9 > Environment: eclipse 3.1.1 > Reporter: Michael Mattox > Assigned To: Eugene Kuleshov > > I have my repository set for the D: drive and this seemed to work with > version 0.0.3 but now with 0.0.9 it doesn't work, it downloads all the jars > into my c:\..\.m2\repository. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
