Hey y’all, I am trying to link one project’s jar to another project. I am totally confused and hope someone can take some time to explain. I have been reading the following pages on the site: http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/index.html#How_do_I_create_a_JAR_and_install_it_in_my_local_repository http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-repositories.html
I have the following tools: a.. eclipse b.. maven c.. git d.. jenkins e.. findbugs f.. pmd my two projects are murmur-events and the other is murmur. Murmur has a dependency to murmur-events. My murmur-events pom has pmd and findbugs and failures in the mojo s preventing installation of the jar. Here is the dependency in the murmur pom: <dependency> <groupId>murmur-events</groupId> <artifactId>murmur-events</artifactId> <scope>runtime</scope> <version>1.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> Here are my questions, I suppose: 1.. How can I install murmur-events, even though pmd/findbugs is issuing warnings? The mvn install is failing. 2.. Where is the local repository where these get installed? 3.. Do I need to have a parent pom with two modules, one for each project? Does this impact where my local repository is? 4.. Should I specify the murmur-events-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar, as a dependency in the murmur project, by system file path? 5.. If the jar is named ‘murmur-events-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar’, will the above dependency of the following find it? 6.. What about setting up an internal repository? Would that be a better solution? 7.. If I have the dependency in maven, will eclipse pick it up? Many thanks, Rob
