Hi Simon, somewhere in the company there is a group creating something, let's say for batch import/export. not all projects need this, but most do. this [application,component,set of libraries] may be used in at least two ways:
1.) you include the 15 dependencies from this [application,component,set of libraries] and you are set. 2.) you include one dependency, which is nothing but a pom in the local repository, referencing all those 15 dependencies. when this [application,component,set of libraries] gets updated in just 2 components with two new version numbers, all from 1.) have to change in their respectice projects the version numbers accordingly, if they want the changes. all from 2.) have to change their one component (if they want the changes) and couldn't care less what exactly in which components have changed. And it does work, if you set it up by copy/paste/edit in your local repository. mit freundlichen Grüßen/best regards Wolfgang Schrecker "MODEL-DRIVEN DESIGN demands that the model stay in lockstep with the implementation, but it allows freedom to choose any implementation that faithfully captures the meaning of the model" from Eric Evans: Domain-Driven Design p. 230 -- -------------------------------------------------- Atos Worldline Processing GmbH Hahnstrasse 25 60528 Frankfurt/Main Germany Phone: +49 69/6657-1176 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.atosworldline.com Geschäftsführer: Erik Munk Koefoed Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Didier Dhennin Sitz der Gesellschaft: Frankfurt/Main Handelsregister: Frankfurt/Main HRB 40 417 -------------------------------------------------- Atos Worldline Processing GmbH Hahnstraße 25 60528 Frankfurt/Main Germany Phone: +49 69/6657-1176 Fax : mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.atosworldline.com Geschäftsführer: Erik Munk Koefoed Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Didier Dhennin Sitz der Gesellschaft: Frankfurt/Main Handelsregister: Frankfurt/Main HRB 40 417 * * * * * * * * L E G A L D I S C L A I M E R * * * * * * * * This e-mail is destined for the above mentioned recipient.
