Not clear from your original post (to me at least) if you don't like the maven repository layout, or if you simply want all of your local dependencies to be located in a lib/ dir, using your own naming conventions.
If the latter, you could create a goal in maven.xml to copy all of your dependencies from the local maven repository to lib/ so they conform to your existing layout. In general, maven plugins won't be able to refer to these copied jars - this approach is probably only useful if you are running a parallel build (based on ANT for example) -Tim > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, 4 August 2003 11:13 AM > To: Maven Users List > Subject: Re: Downloading dependencies > > > Mike, > > cant you set up a redirect on the web server? > -- > dIon Gillard, Multitask Consulting > Blog: http://blogs.codehaus.org/people/dion/ > > > Mike Dougherty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote on 02/08/2003 04:32:25 AM: > > > On Fri, 2003-08-01 at 11:20, Jason van Zyl wrote: > > On Fri, 2003-08-01 at 12:45, Mike Dougherty wrote: > > > I am trying to get my dependencies setup in my project file.
