Last night I was looking at an irc user's pom for a parsing error: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>org.lwjgl</groupId> <artifactId>lwjgl-linux-64</artifactId> <version>2.4.2</version> <repositories> <repository> <id>newdawnsoftware</id> <url>http://www.newdawnsoftware.com/maven2</url> </repository> </repositories> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>net.java.games</groupId> <artifactId>jinput</artifactId> <version>2.0.1</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>net.java.games</groupId> <artifactId>jinput</artifactId> <version>2.0.1</version> <classifier>linux-natives</classifier> </dependency> </dependencies> </project>
I put this on my desktop and ran: c:\Users\brianf\Desktop>mvn help:effective-pom And it started downloading all updated versions of the plugins...plugins that aren't being used in this execution and aren't referenced in the pom directly. I've seen this happen before with a few other projects and it seems odd to me, is this new behavior or is my memory failing? [INFO] Scanning for projects...
