newbie question: local repository for offline dev

[Herry <he...@yahoo.com>]

Hi,
I have just started looking at Maven and I've got a
slight problem.
The environment in which I am developing my projects
on is actually **offline** all the time ( I usually
download all thirdparty libs from a different computer
and move the libs to my dev environment).
This is a problem in my use of Maven because everytime
when I start using Maven, it tries to download all
sorts of libs from the online central repository,
which it couldn't because there is no internet
connection.

Does anybody know any way round this problem, short of
downloading all the online libs at ibiblo to my local
fs at ${maven.home}/repository ?

Appreciate any help

Cheers,
Herry.

Hi,

In file "project.properties", which should be in the root of your 
project folder, set the property "maven.mode.online" to "false".
