Is it possible in maven or leiningen to place a dependency not on a specific version of a pre-built artifact, but rather on a specific scm revision (or just head, aka SNAPSHOT for binary releases) of a project's source repository, and having the machinery understand it has to first locally build the dependency into a jar/whatever in the process of compiling one's project ?
Alternatively, is it possible to at least depend on a "source" version of the dependency, having it compiled on the fly locally when compiling the main project ? (so that one could benefit from AOP, and this could also solve the problem of a library mixing java and clojure source) ? Does all that make sense ? 2010/1/22 Stuart Sierra <the.stuart.sie...@gmail.com>: > On Jan 21, 8:21 pm, Richard Newman <holyg...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Apparently everyone is jumping on the Leiningen bandwagon and deleting >> their build.xml files.
