Yes, you will need to change the name to have the word "SNAPSHOT" in it. You *may* be able to just add a <jar>logging-client.jar</jar> tag, not sure...
Eric -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2005 2:21 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: is there a way to force maven to always download a dependency? Eric Pugh, thanks for your response. Question: do I need a property set in project.properties or project.xml to make SNAPSHOT work? Here's my dependency: <dependency> <groupId>loggingservice</groupId> <artifactId>logging-client</artifactId> <version>SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> This is what Maven tried to do: Attempting to download logging-client-SNAPSHOT.jar. Does the jar require SNAPSHOT in the name? I haven't used the SNAPSHOT feature till now. David, a script as you suggest may be my only way out. Using a pregoal to delete an unversioned jar file before every build is ugly, but may be the only way. No argument here about the qualities of versioning, I'm dealing with a worst case scenario.
