MG>if you are not doing update (mvn -u phase)
MG>then local repository will contain hint to maven repository URL that
contains artifact the contents will be NameOf.jar.lastUpdated

2016http\://repo1.maven.org/maven2/.error=http\://repo1.maven.org/maven2/.lastUpdated=1430774891971
MG>NB: if there was an error the .error entry will be populated with something
like:
http\://ws.zones.apache.org/repository2/.error=Could not transfer artifact
bouncycastle\:bcprov-jdk13\:pom\:132 from/to apache-ws-snapshots2
(http\://ws.zones.apache.org/repository2)\: Error transferring file\:
ws.zones.apache.org
MG>.lastUpdated entry will be populated with zulu time of last update
MG>.remote.repositories file in that folder will contains entries for central
repository location to acquire the artifact:

MG>quick check on which repositories maven can seemvn
dependency:list-repositorieshttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/4701532/force-maven-update
MG>IMHO : i play safe by requesting the local artifact be downloaded to my
local repository with update option e.g.MG> mvn -u
MG>installing m2e for your version of eclipse is necessary when attempting to
configure eclipse BuildPath from maven pom.xml dependencies
