[m2eclipse-user] Using an internal central repository without changing settings.xml

[Todd Thiessen]

I've overridden the central repo in my pom.  ie:

  <repositories>
    <repository>
      <id>central</id>
      <url>http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
    </repository>
  </repositories>
  <pluginRepositories>
    <pluginRepository>
      <id>central</id>
      <url>http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
    </pluginRepository>
  </pluginRepositories>

But for some reason, m2e still downloads some of the artifacts from the
maven central repo.  Not all of them however.  When running the project
from m2e within eclipse I get as output (partial).

url = http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public
Downloading:
http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public/org/apache/maven/plugi
ns/maven-resources-plugin/2.2/maven-resources-plugin-2.2.pom
url = http://repo1.maven.org/maven2
Downloading:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-plugins/1/m
aven-plugins-1.pom

However, if I execute the same build from the command line, all
downloads go to my central repo, which is what I would expect.  ie:

Downloading:
http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public/org/apache/maven/plugi
ns/maven-resources-plugin/2.2/maven-resources-plugin-2.2.pom
Downloading:
http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public/org/apache/maven/plugi
ns/maven-plugins/1/maven-plugins-1.pom
