Hi guys,
When use Maven for building project, we must need local repository.
But what about on developing time?

For example, I'm developing a complex Web application.
When the project started, I set many dependencies in pom.xml, and use
eclipse:eclipse to make Eclipse project descriptor files.The dependencies
are set in Eclipse Java Build Path.
But I don't set all dependencies at the beginning(maybe "mission
impossible"), other jars would be added to pom.xml as dependency in the
future.

Now, my question is "how do I add the jars to Eclipse Java Build Path".
I think there are two ways:
[1]via M2_REPO, use the jars in local repository.
[2]assembly the jars in one directory, and add them to build path directory.
Generally, which one is better?

May some friends puzzle that why the question released?
In fact, the project is developed by several co-workers, different persons
may use different jars.
And only one maintains the pom files and repository.
Some one need some jars, and he/she has had them, then he/she would add jars
to build path directly(way [2]), then advice the maintainer to add the jars
to dependencies and update repository.
I think the approach is dangerous. Because one's jars may not synchronous
with corresponding artifacts(especially version) in repository.
I want know how to deal with the matter in your organization.
Thanks!

a cup of Java, cheers!
