You should be able to do this with the plugin I wrote. The zip is here: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MOJO-173
Download the code and build the site, it has pages to tell how it works. In a nutshell, you can retrieve artifacts from the repo and copy or explode them. This works separate from the normal dependancy list. If it works and you like it, maybe leave a comment in the jira so we can get it added to the mojo project. -----Original Message----- From: Christian Schulte [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2005 11:48 AM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: [m2] Downloading source-code jar files ?

Currently I am doing it like <dependency> <groupId>someGroupId</groupId> <artifactId>someArtifactId</artifactId> <classifier>sources</classifier> <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> but this seems to be incorrect since the sources will be added to the various classpaths. Is it possible to just download the jars without putting them in some classpath ? -- Christian --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
