-------------------------------------
Summary: artifact:dependencies does not download latest version
SNAPSHOT dependency if already present locally
Key: MANTTASKS-234
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTTASKS-234
Project: Maven 2.x Ant Tasks
Issue Type: Bug
Components: dependencies task
Affects Versions: 2.1.3
Environment: Windows
Reporter: Justin Rowe
We are using <artifact:dependencies> to trigger download of an artifact from a
remote repo to the local repo. When the dependency is a SNAPSHOT dependency, it
only seems to check that the dependency exists in the local repo, it does not
check that there is a more recent snapshot in the remote repo. So the snapshot
artifact does not get updated with the latest version.
My workaround is to call this artifact:dependencies, delete the artifact that
is referred to in the property that gets set by this task, and then call
artifact:dependencies again to ensure that we have the correct version.
