I share your pain Rob every time I build geoserver for the first time of the day and it tries to download all the new geotools artifacts. I don't know if there is a way to tell maven to upload a new version of an artifact only if its changed...
One thing we could do is swap out our nightly deploy process for a hudson configuration which is set up to build and every single module in separation only when a change to it occurs. The problem with this approach is that geotools is literally 80+ modules. Good luck trying to find someone with the patience to set that up. -Justin Rob Atkinson wrote: > Every day we seem to build all modules from scratch - regardless of > whether they have changed - which seems to mean you have to either do > a full mvn install orust as bad, a full download every day you make a > change. > > In particular, you cant just build a module you care about and then be > alerted its dependencies have changed because there is a new mvn > artefact - everything is new and you have to do a full svn update > first really to scan for changes. > > This seems to be making a mockery of both automated build and change > control concepts.
