Maven changing the maven repository from {user}/.m2/repository to projectfolder using pom.xml?

Based on the comment, it appears that you want the dependencies to be downloaded once, checked into version control system and never updated again.

Based on the comment, it appears that you want the dependencies to be downloaded once, checked into version control system and never updated again. While this is possible, this would defeat the purpose of using maven - like handling updates to dependencies. Also, it would bloat your SCM needlessly and cause performance issues during checkouts.

Why don't you look at using a repository manager (like nexus or artifactory), which can mirror required repositories in your local network, so that developers can access it instead of downloading it from internet?

I get what you are saying, that would be a good idea but do not have the facilities required to do that. Ideally it should download all the jars from maven central but I have a few I added manually I will just try to find them on a maven rep and should be ok – JustMe May 13 at 7:45 yeah got it sorted tanks – JustMe May 15 at 4:03.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
