Netbeans keeps transferring maven repository index, even though I have disabled it
10,389
What features will be limited exactly?
- You may not get the latest versions of dependencies when typing control space in the version tag in the pom.xml file.
- The functionality to "Search dependency at Maven Repositories for .." in the Java editor may not find the dependency you are looking for.
In Netbeans 8.2 I selected "Completely disable indexing" and it's all working for me besides the above.
I can understand why it's NOT recommended, but I keeps on running out of space on my SSD drive. It keeps downloading the index over and over again in a loop...

Although I have set "Index Update Frequency" to "Never":
Netbeans frequently tries to transfer maven repository index which consumes a lot of my bandwidth:
Is it fine if I check "Completely disable indexing" option? It says that it's not recommended and many features will be limited. What features will be limited exactly?

liponcio about 8 yearsDid you ever let it go and index the repo? At least one time!
-
B Faley about 8 years@liponcio No. Because it consumes a lot of bandwidth and takes a lot of time to complete.
