I'm not sure what you mean by pom.xml in this context. That is for my project, which I included in my email. Do you mean the .pom file for the jar? If that's the case, the option to create you talk about won't be available until 2.0.1. I checked it on the jira site. It is fixed. I forget the exact number.
That was basically the problem, which answers my number 3 below. Yes, each jar has to have a .pom in the local repository. However, this wasn't always the case. I had 27 jars that I loaded into my local repository, none of which had poms. Usually, everything worked fine. It would always look in central since the pom was missing, but if it didn't find it, then it would ignore it. But sometimes I'd get that intermittent problem where it would fail. Not sure why. I have added poms for each jar, and now it never looks in central, except for the daily checked I've configured. Anyway, I think the other 3 questions are still valid and would be useful to others to have documented somewhere, so if anyone has input, it would be appreciated... -----Original Message----- From: Anuerin Diaz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 02, 2005 8:31 AM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: [m2] I need clarification on repositories i am not a developer but can you ´try creating the appropriate pom.xml (you can copy from the other libraries)? i think there is an option to have the pom installed during the install goal invocation. ciao!
