Maven won’t overwrite the built version of an eclipse project in my local repository.

  • 0

Maven won’t overwrite the built version of an eclipse project in my local repository. I only changed a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file, but Maven doesn’t seem to recognize that and therefore doesn’t overwrite the artifacts in the local repository. How can I force it to overwrite? This is the maven log:

    The problem was that I used the bundle plugin to generate osgi bundles. With these, the bundle plugin generates it’s own MANIFEST.MF file and doesn’t use the file that I put into my resources. In fact I also got some error when I tried to use my own MANIFEST.MF file in addition to the one generated by the bundle plugin.
