In my project I use a third party library that I would like to put into
a remote maven repository. The lib is distributed as a zip file. To use
the lib outside of maven you unzip the archive to a directory, set your
classpath to various locations in that directory, and set an environment
variable pointing to the directory itself. The library is proprietary
and there are various licensing issues but these would be handled
outside of maven.
What I'd like to be able to do is place a dependency on the third party
lib in my project and have maven do as much of the above as possible.
I'm looking at the assembly plugin and the dependency plugin but
basically I'm a maven newbie and I'm horribly confused.
Thanks, John
