Elliotte Rusty Harold resolved MDEP-904. ---------------------------------------- Resolution: Not A Problem sounds like there's not consensus about doing this. There might be something else we should do instead, but if so it's unclear what. Whatever that is, it should probably have a more targeted issue once it's determined. > Drop go-offline goal > -------------------- > > Key: MDEP-904 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-904 > Project: Maven Dependency Plugin > Issue Type: Task > Components: go-offline > Reporter: Tamas Cservenak > Priority: Major > Fix For: 4.0.0 > > > The simplest and trivial way to "go offline" is to quick build (using > {{-Dtest=void}} and NOT {{-DskipTests}}!) the project with empty local > repository and use that. > There are two "go offline" mojos out there (ours and an independent one) and > both suffer from issues like "annotation processor is not downloaded", etc. > This will just become worse. But not only this: by NOT building but by > artificially collecting artifacts needed for build and resolving them (not > doable correctly, only "almost correctly") messes up the recorded contexts in > the reverse dependency tree in local repository as well. > Remember, Maven2 times are past, Maven3+ local repository is much much more > than Maven2 local repository was, just a bunch a files... > Related issues: > * https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOLVER-262 > * https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7619 -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
