             Summary: cli parameter to use a custom path settings-security.xml
                 Key: MNG-5438
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5438
             Project: Maven 2 & 3
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Command Line
    Affects Versions: 3.0.4, 3.0.5
            Reporter: Sarah Haselbauer
         Attachments: apache-maven-3.0.4-ssec-bin.zip, maven-3.0.4-0001-added-ssec-as-cli-param-so-that-you-have-the-same-fl.patch, maven-latest-0001-added-ssec-as-cli-param-so-that-you-have-the-same-fl.patch

added -ssec as cli param, so that you have the same flexibility to place your settings-security.xml as you have to point to a custom settings.xml file

mvn -s /path/to/my/custom/settings.xml -ssec /path/to/my/custom/settings-security.xml

I attached to patches: one that can be run on the maven-3.0.4 tag and one that can be run on trunk (latest code state of today).
I also attached a maven-3.0.4-bin.zip (linux) so you can quickly try out the feature and test it yourself.

if you like the idea, I would welcome to have this feature merged into one of the next releases. I need it to write a puppet-maven module that allows to download artifacts from maven repositories with encrypted passwords in the puppet recipe.
