Thanks for that! You’re right, I was also looking for this on the Maven2 project user guide at http://maven.apache.org/guides/ and couldn’t find it..doesn’t seem to be there. This post came in handy! Cheers

@sunes What you are trying to do is not clear to me… are you trying to have a common classpath for Maven and for Ant scripts embedded in Maven? I think you can obtain the classpath for the compile scope, though I’m not sure how.
If you have both Maven and (separate) Ant scripts, I guess you need to point to the Maven repository in two places.

Hi! I am trying to change my local repository of maven, but I am using ant too, so I can’t find where to do it: in the fetch.xml (from ant) file, or in the settings.xml file. Of course i tried it changing the settings.xml, but it didn’t work, so now i am trying it in the fetch.xml and get-m2.xml of ant, but i haven’t got nothing yet…
any idea??????

thanx!!!!!

If you do not want to change your settings.xml, you can simply pass ‘-Dmaven.repo.local=’ to your mvn call
