Hi, Thanks for the answers. But this is not what i will do. I know about overriding jars in project.properties ;-)
My problem is, that we have one main project and many projects dependend on the main project (and their jars). Thus I will store all jars from the main project in the users local repository, thus the user can use maven with a dependency to the main-project using the required jars from the local repository. If it is not possible to give maven a http based url for a dependency, one would add the dependent jar to the local cvs (this is what we have done, with private jars). Then it should be possible to reference the jars from the cvs via file based urls, so that they can be copied into the local repository. Later if the depenedency has a download url you can simple change the url in the dependency-descriptor of the project and maven will then use this location to download new version. I have also searched if there is a goal to store some jars into a local repository, where i can give the goal a url to use for copying the jar into the repository. But i cannot find such thing. The only goal i found was repository:install where i can give a artifact (why not artifactID?) and userId. But this goal tries to download the jar from ilibio where the jars are not installed. Any other ideas?
