Maven does not get latest snapshot for building

[Jan Thomä <ko...@insomnia-hq.de>]

Hi,

we are using a library called ICC for our projects. The library is built from 
SVN on our server once per night and stored as icc-1.0-SNAPSHOT on the 
server. We have added the server to our remote repositories via settings.xml. 

Also, since ICC is still in heavy development, every developer has a local 
copy of ICC as well on his machine.

When a developer changes ICC if he needs the change for some other project 
depending on ICC, he finally calls mvn install, to install his local changes 
to ICC into his local repository (which creates an icc-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar in 
the local repo).

When building the other project, maven fetches the latest copy of ICC from our 
server and puts it into the local repository. Now here is where the problem 
starts. Maven always uses the copy from the server, not the locally installed 
one (using mvn install in ICC), even if the locally created version is 
newer . Is there something we are doing wrong?

Best regards,
--

Good day to you, Jan,

No. That is how maven works. 

I think you should deploy those snapshots to your server to fix your problem
(or if you want, create a snapshot repo). And i think it is the proper
approach to that as well. 

Cheers,
Franz
