Hi Eric,
I've been struggling with NPanday for hours just because I want to
try to add a dependency to log4net, and I still cannot see any light
at the end of the tunnel.
It is so much easier to use the Sonatype plugin for Eclipse.
I'm really sorry for the trouble you encounter. And we appreciate your
interest in NPanday.
Though, you can't really compare NPanday and Visual Studio with Maven
and Eclipse (yet). Allthough NPanday is in use by many, it is far from
the broad adoption Maven has in the Java space. Hopefully this will
not stay like it is. That is, what we work for.
Especially the NPanday VS Add-in serves very specific tasks (Project
import, Reference sync). We hope to engage more users, contributors
and committers to help us build a better NPanday.
I personally joined the project in late 2010, because I belive this is
the way to go for building in .NET. But we have still much work to do.
So far, it's been worth it.
Truly I see the value in NPanday, and I understand it's bleeding edge
technology at the moment. It's just that I'm tired and frustrated after
so many hours of trying to get it working. I would really appreciate it
if someone could get me to the point of being able to bring just one
dependency into my project, preferably log4net.
I do agree with you that this is the way to go with .NET, so please keep
working to improve NPanday and some-day I hope it will be as easy to use
as m2e.
By the way, the file
npanday-repository-builder-1.4.0-incubating-bin.tar.gz had no npanday
directory in it, so I'm using the one from the 1.3.1 release.
As liit already mentioned, we changed the group id to
org.apache.npanday. This change was nessecary in order to comply with
apache rules and to get npanday into Maven Central.
NP - it was just confusing for me as I was struggling to understand why
I could not get things working properly.
Cheers, Eric

Hi Eric,
The message from the pop-up was just a warning, so you should still
be able to add an artifact. What happens afterwards when you click OK?
The settings.xml file btw, is a configuration file used by Maven
where you can set the repositories that you want Maven to look for
artifacts/dependencies of your project when you build it. It is also
used by NPanday in a similar way during project import, artifact
re-sync and when building your project.
Thanks,
Deng

I'm trying to get NPanday to work with Visual Studio 2010, but
when I try to add and artifact I get
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
