[cross-project-issues-dev] usage of general parent pom and settings.xml

[Henrik <hrr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm a Maven newbie and just looking at some CBI stuff which I could use for the eTrice project.

I saw that http://wiki.eclipse.org/Maven/Parent_POM recommends to use a parent pom [1].

<parent>
   <groupId>org.eclipse</groupId>
   <artifactId>eclipse-parent</artifactId>
   <version>3</version>
</parent>

but it is not clear to which repository this is published.

Also the settings.xml [2] seems to be outdated.

Is it still recommended to uses these two files?

Thanks,
Henrik
