Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing consistency between software library repositories. The system can be used to ensure that a repository of compile-time libraries is consistent with a target run-time or execution environment. Each of a plurality of libraries in an execution environment can be associated with a location file or metadata including coordinates for the library and a relative path to a library artifact. The system can use the metadata to populate or synchronize a particular library repository, for example a software developer's compile-time library, with libraries or artifacts associated with the metadata, from the execution environment. The populated or synchronized repository can subsequently be used by a user of a software build automation tool at compile time.
