[M2] Snapshot Dependencies
Hi,
snapshots are handled by timestamps. If I use binary dependencies
against snapshots inside eclipse, each time when I need a new snapshot
from my colleague I have to generate a new classpath for eclipse.
Actually I only want to generate .project and .classpath only if the POM
change. Dependencies shoud always look like this:
<classpathentry kind="var"
path="M2_REPO/hhla/library/hhla.lang/MAVEN-SNAPSHOT/hhla.lang-MAVEN-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>
But the snapshot jar without the timestamp only exist in my local
repository if I have installed or deployed the jar from my local
machine.
Thanks for your help!
Bernd

I believe Brett very kindly fixed this in trunk last night:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-230
This should fix the deploying snapshot issue with eclipse, but haven't
had a chance to check it yet.
Thanks again to Brett for getting this in before 2.1! :)

Hi,
This is all correct, but it's an eclipse problem - maven2 handles new
snapshot versions fine, but the .classpath has to reference actual files,
and if their names change, you have to update the .classpath. No
workaround for that, unless eclipse has some built-in mechanism to
get the latest file using some variable expression.
I guess that if you update (using m2 -U install) you can also add an
eclipse:eclipse goal to that commandline - it's really fast so you won't
even notice this.
Do you have another solution? Maybe add symlinks from the -MAVEN-SNAPSHOT-
file to the latest snapshot? The latest version is present in
...-MAVEN-SNAPSHOT.version.txt; if you could convince eclipse to
use a classpath entry like
M2_REPO/a/b/MAVEN-SNAPSHOT/c-`cat .....version.txt`.jar using some
expression, you're done. But again, this is an eclipse problem and until
the eclipse GUI for maven2 is ready (which should automatically update
your classpath) you're out of luck..
