Guillaume, I think the dev:watch command is a great idea. However, I can see how it could possibly introduce problems if left on, or forgotten about by the developer. Perhaps as part of adding the new functionality to automatically update snapshots when they are refreshed in the maven repository, you could send something to the console to indicate an automatic update is being performed? ----- Karafman Slayer of the JEE Pounder of the Perl Programmer -- View this message in context: http://karaf.922171.n3.nabble.com/How-does-features-refreshUrl-handles-snapshot-tp2694125p2694314.html Sent from the Karaf - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
