> I have an archetype deployed on cvs.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository. There is no way for users to use this archetype without creating a dummy pom first so that the configuration in settings.xml (where i defined this repository) kicks in.
> IRC log :
> jorg	does the archetype plugin take settings.xml in account ? I've defined it as http://rafb.net/paste/results/8ajh7v15.html , but when looking for the archetype it doesn't even go to that server
> jorg	or maybe it's a pluginRepository instead ... trying
> jdcasey	jorg: I think the active profiles in the settings.xml are only applied to the current project, so if you're executing without a current project I dunno that it will use them
> jorg	oh drats
> jorg	so i'll give the users a dummy pom + settings.xml to execute against.. mmmm
> jdcasey	jorg: it might be nice to have in the future though...
> jdcasey	it could modify the instance of the super-project that's loaded in memory
> jorg	might be nice yes .. i don't see any other way
> jorg	(unless your archetype is published to the primary download site or one of it's mirrors ofcourse)
> jdcasey	file it, if you like
> jorg	:)
> jdcasey	:)
> so unless you've got your stuff on ibiblio nobody can easily use your archetype.
