[jira] Commented: (MECLIPSE-387) download source should accept exclusion of artifact

["Dominique Jean-Prost (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-387?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=130728#action_130728 ] 

Dominique Jean-Prost commented on MECLIPSE-387:
-----------------------------------------------

As MECLIPSE-332 is fixed, it's now acceptable to use -DdownloadSoruces=true on a specific artifact.

Anyway, I think that having a "maven installation" wide cache would greatly improve experience. Maybe ~/.m2 is the correct place.
+1 for this feature.

> It would be nice to be possible to exclude specific group/artifact when downloadSources is to true (in pom.xml for instance).
> As the sources jar or the javadoc jar will never be available in repo, for specific artifact, mvn eclipse:eclipse keep on trying to download them, and it slows the process.
