Yes, it is possible, but it's not easy and usually would require
every developer to do extra steps prior to building. As I mentioned
before, it will also make it very hard to work with other projects
like Tuscany and CXF as you then start requiring all of their
developers to do the same and then all the projects that rely on them
also require it, etc... It's pretty much viral in nature.
I see the problem. It is possible for us to, instead of pushing our
mina and fscontext jars into a maven repository, to have Maven
download them from SVN instead?
Well, two answers:
1) fscontext - definitely not. It's not even allowed in SVN.
To add to Dan's comment -
I chatted with Cliff a bit on this. I understand that we can leave the
test in svn (but not the jar as Dan says), and place a readme that
states - in order to run the test you need to go download it. We might
want to move test that fall into this class into another location in the
long run, as they become "optional" and if you want to run them you need
to download these pieces separately.
This mechanism can only be used for non required / optional tests /
components however.
