Ok, I guess I'm still not used to the "maven way" :-) The code in ResolvePluginsMojo was confusing to me until I walked up the class hierarchy. Here is what I came up with:
/** * Used to look up Artifacts in the remote repository. * * @parameter expression="${component.org.apache.maven.artifact.factory.ArtifactFactory}" * @required * @readonly */ protected org.apache.maven.artifact.factory.ArtifactFactory factory; /** * Used to look up Artifacts in the remote repository. * * @parameter expression="${component.org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.ArtifactResolver}" * @required * @readonly */ protected org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.ArtifactResolver resolver; /** * Location of the local repository. * * @parameter expression="${localRepository}" * @readonly * @required */ protected org.apache.maven.artifact.repository.ArtifactRepository local; /** * List of Remote Repositories used by the resolver * * @parameter expression="${project.remoteArtifactRepositories}" * @readonly * @required */ protected java.util.List remoteRepos; private File getArtifactFile(String groupId, String artifactId, String version) throws MavenReportException { // Ask maven for the correct path to statcvs VersionRange range = VersionRange.createFromVersion (version); Artifact statcvs = factory.createPluginArtifact(groupId, artifactId, range); try { resolver.resolve(statcvs, remoteRepos, local); } catch (ArtifactResolutionException e) { throw new MavenReportException ("Error resolving artifact "+statcvs, e); } catch (ArtifactNotFoundException e) { throw new MavenReportException ("Error resolving artifact "+statcvs, e); } return statcvs.getFile(); } Is this code correct? Now, it would be great if I could access my plugin's POM (*not* the POM of the current project) to load the version number from there. Is there a way? I guess I could use a filter :-/ Regards, -- Aaron Digulla [EMAIL PROTECTED] schrieb am 13.10.2006 11:11:39: > "Dan Tran" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb am 12.10.2006 12:14:47: > > > > How do I determine the absolute path for a JAR in the repository? > > > http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-dependency-plugin > > > > Look for Copy Artifact/Dependency, etc > > That's only for project dependencies.
