Sry for posting again in the wrong list but I would like to complete this here. At least for my problem I found a solution using the maven-dependency-plugin:get goal. The following will grab the required artifacts from the nexus and put it into the local repository:


	<properties>
		<rcp.groupId>a.group</rcp.groupId>
		<rcp.artifactId>a.plugin</rcp.artifactId>
		<rcp.artifact.version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</rcp.artifact.version>
	</properties>
	
	<build>
		<plugins>
			<plugin>
				<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
				<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
				<version>2.5.1</version>
