RE: How to disable creation of cache repository under c:\Document
s an d Settings\user\m2\.. ?
I created a network first to try it out instead of webserver, but
unfortunately it did not work :
What I did was :
- created a network share on server.
- assigned write permissions on that to me only,
everyone read.
- create a environment variable in OS - WinXP
- and refer that environment variable in settings.xml
<localRepository>${serverShareName}</localRepository>
On this share, I had already placed all repository contents.
Though it seems unusual to refer it as local, it did not work. I am not
sure If took right steps, may be someone else give some pointers on this
?
Regards.

I tried to say, that the programs run by Maven2 needs the jar files
locally. i.e. when you use Maven to compile something it calls javac
with a classpath set to the jar files specified in your POM. Javac uses
the classpath to locate the jar files and as far as I know, Javac can't
work with remote files.
What you can do is try to do create a network share and put the "local"
repository there. I don't have any experience with this, but I think it
may work.

Define 'did not work'. What seems to go wrong? I think Maven does not know
(or care) wether it's a local or mounted disk. So if it doesn't work
something is wrong in your sharing configuration or the env variable
substitution.
Still when you get this to work there may be some problem when using this
with multiple developers.
1) If a developer has read-only permission and builds a project that
requires an aditional artifact it fails because it can't save the file.
Effectively it's like running mvn in offline mode.
2) Alternatively when you give all developers write permission there may be
some funny race conditions when multiple clients add the same artifact to
the shared repository.
Anyway, just add a 'clean_respository.bat' if it bothers you I'd say ;)
cheers,
Bram
