Hi all,
I am trying to use maven2 to build an existing ant based project, and am
trying to get the dependancies right.
Some of the jars we need are not published on ibilio, and so we have
installed them locally using mvn install:install-file.
The trouble is, our build still fails like so:
6/28/06 3:21:49 PM SAST: Reading /alchemy-trader/pom.xml
6/28/06 3:23:04 PM SAST: Unable to get dependency information: Unable to
read the metadata file for artifact 'eclipse:eclipse-swt:jar': Error
getting POM for 'eclipse:eclipse-swt' from the repository: Error
transferring file
eclipse:eclipse-swt:pom:3.1.0
from the specified remote repositories:
central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)
eclipse:eclipse-swt-3.1.0.jar
Why is maven2 trying to read the metadata file, when the jar file is
already present?
To find out, if there are also dependencies, that needs to be downloaded
and so on.
Is there some way to tell maven2 "this is a local file in the local
repository, do not try and download this file remotely"?
Install them in local repository with generic POM, see
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-3rd-party-jars-remote.html

Tomek
