There is not a time dependency. There are two ways that we invoke maven. The first is with the mvn command, to do the java build.

The fetching from the local repository is so we can build an install file using a commercial tool for building a GUI installer. The local repository is intended to be used by a single developer. If you need to share artifacts, then deploy them to a remote internal corporate repository. The snapshot and release deployment urls are set in distributionManagement for each project. The point here is that a single developer who works on multiple products or product releases may need one local repository per product or release. This is particularly true if the different releases need to be built simultaneously, because the build puts artifacts compiled/created during the build into the local repository. Simultaneous builds using the same local repository would clobber each others' files. This is all run under a single top-level ant script, and therefore all in one run by the same user. The top ant script runs maven for the java build. Then it runs some Makefiles for modules written in C/C++. Then it runs another ant script, build_installer.xml, which collects artifacts from the build and creates an install file for shipment to customers. It is build_installer.xml that uses the copy ant task from antlib to fetch artifacts from the local repository for inclusion in the install file. One solution we've contemplated, and probably will implement, is that build_installer.xml will no longer use antlib nor the local repository, but will fetch artifacts from the source directories where they were created.

I tried the suggestion below for invoking Maven and it
worked. I also
defined the maven.repo.local property in the ant script for

repository for the Maven ant tasks. No such luck.
It seems there is no way to pass the location of the local

~/.m2/ant/settings.xml.
Thus there is no way to have multiple repositories per user

Hi Jason et Al
We need to export some important system variables through Maven 2
Ant[Run] and Exec similar plugins. Perhaps the developer
can devise a
way to create or export system variables as environment variables
generally through Maven core.
Marilyn
I also worked around this problem by using `sed' on UNIX
with a simple
placeholder inside `settings.xml.in'.
I did it in a shell script that called Maven like this
/bin/rm -rf ${XYZ_M2_LOCAL}/settings.xml sed -e
's,@BUILD_REPO@,'${XYZ_M2_LOCAL_REPO}',g'
src/release-control/settings.xml.in ${XYZ_M2_LOCAL}/settings.xml

Peter,
Thanks for your reply and for this suggestion. We are
already doing something like that in order to keep the
repositories for different builds separate. But we still
have the problem that each build must be allowed to complete
before another one can run for the same user , because the
ant tasks that use Maven can run very late in the build.
(Where are the gears grinding?)
I see: You have a build that has a dependency that relates to
build-time.
Despite the fact that Maven creates it artifacts and install them
in a local repository, there is some other thing in your
corporate environment that it is time conscience.
If this is the case then what would be case if you are build with Apache
Ant, then this build-time dependency will still exist regardless of the
infrastructure technology.
I am not sure, then, if Maven can solve this, especially f you cannot
isolate the build-time dependency.
Having said, I think a user-profile related dependency can be a problem
for you. If you a user-profile that shared between teams, divisions,
departments
then the environment variables can be changed ad hoc. Therefore again
Maven cannot
I've filed the JIRA request. I got the automated
acknowledgment (MNG-2684), but that's all so far.

Meantime, our mixed builds are not scalable at all. We

one build per user per machine at a time. I hope the

come through fairly quickly.

The trouble is, the copy task will only look in ~/.m2/settings.xml. If we are limited to use of ~/.m2/settings.xml for specifying the location of the local repository, then a second build of a different product, BY THE SAME USER before the first build is finished, will clobber the local repository of the first build. Thus we are stuck with using the same settings.xml file for all builds done by one user, and therefore also the same local repository for all builds done by one user. The only way to have one user do multiple builds at the same time is to put the local repository on a local partition such as /tmp or /var/tmp or some such. Then, at least, we can do one build per machine per user. This is really wasteful of machine resources, however. --Marilyn I've filed the JIRA request.

RE: MAVEN_INSTALL_DIR/conf/settings.xml
I tried the suggestion below for invoking Maven and it worked. I also defined the maven.repo.local property in the ant script for our mixed build, hoping antlib would pick up on it and use the same local repository for the Maven ant tasks. No such luck. It seems there is no way to pass the location of the local repository to antlib except through ~/.m2/settings.xml or ~/.m2/ant/settings.xml. Thus there is no way to have multiple repositories per user simultaneously. I will file a JIRA request for an enhancement. Meantime, our mixed builds are not scalable at all. We can do only one build per user per machine at a time. I hope the enhancement will come through fairly quickly.
