You can install the lib to your local system repo and then completely avoid
others having the anticipated dependency build problem by applying the
mvn-shade-plugin:
(1) mvn install the lib to my local system repo.
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=lib\<your-lib>.jar
-DgroupId=<group-id> -DartifactId=<art-id> -Dversion=<vers>
-Dpackaging=jar
(2) then, simply package this dependency within my proj's package with
something like:
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.3.2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>shade</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<includes>
<include>[the-lib-group]:[the-lib-artifact]:*<includes>
</includes>
</configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build>
... </project>
Those who pull down your project will receive the depended upon library's
classes built directly into the project tree.
