Can we specify a specific user settings.xml to use via pom.xml?

I would like to know if someone found a trick to specify a settings.xml file in a (parent) pom.xml.

The goal is to avoid every developer to have their own -possibl开发者_开发技巧y "customize"- version of those settings. Instead it would be set on a central location on the corporate network.

I'm aware of the "-s" that works on the command-line, but since we use Eclipse, it would be much simple to have it set in the main project pom file.

Thanks for your help,

No you can't do that.

You can tell everyone to use a copy of maven in which you edit the global settings (conf/settings.xml).
