No, but you can use the <ant:uptodate /> task in the postGoal to test whether it is necessary. See the JAXB plugin at http://maven-plugins.sf.net/ for an example. > 2) SNAPSHOTs: Can someone describe to me Maven behavior step-by-step The only real difference is that a SNAPSHOT is downloaded from a remote repository every time it is newer.
