Why can't I resolve the dependencies for GeoTools maven quickstart?

Question

POM is

Answer 1

The issue occurs because the org.geotools:gt-shapefile:jar:10-SNAPSHOT does not exist at either http://download.java.net/maven/2 or http://download.osgeo.org/webdav/geotools. All you have to do is define the snapshot repository for the GeoTools as it is mentioned at the GeoTools:Maven Quick Start as the following: -

    
        maven2-repository.dev.java.net
        Java.net repository
        http://download.java.net/maven/2
    
    
        osgeo
        Open Source Geospatial Foundation Repository
        http://download.osgeo.org/webdav/geotools/
    
     
        
            true
        
        opengeo
        OpenGeo Maven Repository
        http://repo.opengeo.org
    

I hope this may help.
