It is critical that an artifact with version a.b.c.0 never change irregardless of what repository it is located in. A released artifact is static, that is, it is never updated.
It sounds like you want to use SNAPSHOTS which are non-released development artifact versions. SNAPSHOTS can be updated. Maven will check remote repositories and download newer versions (SNAPSHOTS and releases) as configured. -Dave -----Original Message----- From: Morgovsky, Alexander (US - Glen Mills) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 05, 2007 4:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Maven dependency versions If I have an artifact of version a.b.c.0 in my local repository, and someone uploads a newer artifact with version a.b.c.0 to the remote repository, will my dependent project check if there is a newer version of artifact a.b.c.0 in all of the repositories compared to that in my local repository, or will it find the older artifact in the local repository and not look for the newer one in the remote repository?
