I *suspect* that you simply copied AbsoluteLayout.jar into lib/, but that does not make lib/ a Maven repository. You have to "deploy" it there: mvn deploy:deploy-file \ -DrepositoryId=unknown-jars-temp-repo \ -Dfile=AbsoluteLayout.jar \ -DgroupId=unknown.binary -DartifactId=AbsoluteLayout \ -Dversion=SNAPSHOT because Maven will add metadata about the version and use a standard directory layout there. I suspect, though that your version will trigger an error because it does not follow any convention I know of: SNAPSHOT versions still need to have a valid version prefix. Also, I suspect that you did not follow the help on http://fiji.sc/Maven#How_to_find_a_dependency.27s_groupId.2FartifactId.2Fversion_.28GAV.29.3F because I could find information about the AbsoluteLayout dependency pretty easily via our Maven repository: http://dev.imagejdev.org:8081/index.html#nexus-search;quick~absolutelayout Clicking on the RELEASE72 line, I got this: <dependency> <groupId>org.netbeans.external</groupId> <artifactId>AbsoluteLayout</artifactId> <version>RELEASE72</version> </dependency> Ciao, Johannes _______________________________________________ ImageJ-devel mailing list ImageJ-devel@imagej.net http://imagej.net/mailman/listinfo/imagej-devel
