Cool. Just to verify if I'm thinking correctly: Would the "correct" usage be:
1. setLocalRepositoryDirectory(<myLocalRepoDirectory>); 2. alignWithUserInstallation(false); 3. mavenEmbedder.start(); Thanks, Dan PS: Any chance this fix could make it into 2.0.4? -----Original Message----- From: Jason van Zyl [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 30, 2006 4:29 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: [m2.0.3] Embedder - setAlignWithUser ignored Rollo, Dan wrote: > It appears there is no way to override the "localRepository" used by > MavenEmbedder.
