how to use snapshot policy or how to update dependencies snapshots only

[Manoj Kumar <ja...@gmail.com>]

Hi all

I have read about snapshot-policy in a design document at the link given
below for modifying download behavior for the snapshots.

http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Repository+-+SNAPSHOT+Handling

but the given <snapshot-policy> tag is not working in my pom.xml file
 when I added it under repository definition as follows

 <repositories>
  <repository>
     <id>1</id>
     <url>our own repository url</url>
  <snapshots>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
               <snapshot-policy>always</snapshot-policy>
     </snapshots>
    </repository>
</repositories>

Also as too

<repositories>
    <repository>

      <id>1</id>
      <url>our own repository url</url>
        <snapshot-policy>always</snapshot-policy>

    </repository>
</repositories>

 But in both the cases I got unrecognized tag parse error.
I have tried it with both maven2.0 and maven2.0.2.
Is this feature is currently not available or I am doing something wrong.


I am doing all this to update my dependency snapshot's only, not the
plugins snapshots from
our own remote repository and I don't want use –U option as it updates
plugin's too.



Thanx!!
