Multiple downloads attempted on multiple remove repositories

[Alex Karasulu <ao...@bellsouth.net>]

Hello,

 

Seems that maven attempt to download a dependent artifact from all the
remote repositories listed in the maven.repo.remote property even if it
finds the dependency within one of the existing repositories.  Maven will
try all repositories regardless of success.  I guess this strategy is good
if you are comparing timestamps on SNAPSHOT dependencies but should it be
the case with versioned goods?

 

Is there any way to toggle this functionality off for anything other than
SNAPSHOT dependencies?

 

Thanks,

Alex
