It should give you the name of the class itself, which you can search for in your repository manager or on one of the public instances of repository search to find out which JAR it is coming from. You might also try the animal sniffer plugin: http://mojo.codehaus.org/animal-sniffer-maven-plugin/examples/generating-other-api-signatures.html > > Is there some common wisdom or best practices on how to determine which Java > versions were used to build an artifact.

Maven can't do dependency resolution based on this, because there is no global flag for a JAR that's applicable (each class in it can be different). - Brett -- Brett Porter br...@apache.org http://brettporter.wordpress.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
