I haven't constructed an experiment to confirm with the latest version, but my experience has been that if you build from the top, Maven "knows" about all the sub-modules and can generally find and use the artifacts. If you drop into a subdirectory, it only "knows" about that module and the ones beneath it. And possibly the parent pom. But it won't know about sibling modules or their children, so it will try to resolve those from the repository. -- Wendy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
