Hello,

thank you everyone for these suggestions. Let's go back to my original issue.

I need to add a library to maven classpath. The library I need is another RepositoryLayoutFactory, to download artifact located is a repository which is not yet supported by Maven. Actually it's a basic HTTP server. (It could be an FTP server or a database accessed is JDBC...)

The library is made, it works (as well as I need), but to use it I need to add it to maven/lib/ext which is not portable to other computer. So I'm looking at alternatives. Surefire could be a candidate, or not...


I hope this helps to understand.

regards,


Stephane

Hi Stephane,

You can do like this

         <plugin>
           <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
           <version>3.0.0-M9</version>
           <dependencies>
             <dependency>
               <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
               <artifactId>commons-email</artifactId>
               <version>1.5</version>
             </dependency>
           </dependencies>
         </plugin>
this will add dependencies to the surefire plugin itself.
I guess Stephane wants to add to the jvm running the tests?

additionalClasspathElement expect a full path to a directory or a file
to be added to the classpath

should work with something such but you need to assume commons-email
has been resolved locally as a dependency.
<additionalClasspathElement>${settings.localRepository}/org/apache/commons/commons-email/1.5/commons-email-1.5.jar</additionalClasspathElement>

another solution is to use dependency:copy to copy the commons-email
dependency somewhere in ./target and use this path (see
https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/examples/copying-artifacts.html)

a real example here :)

Hello,

Is it possible to add a maven artifact as an additionalClasspathElement ?

I tried this syntax, inspired by the exclusion mechanism, but it's not
working.

<build>
     <plugins>
        <plugin>
           <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
           <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
           <version>3.0.0-M9</version>
           <configuration>
              <additionalClasspathElements>

<additionalClasspathElement>org.apache.commons:commons-email:1.5</additionalClasspathElement>
              </additionalClasspathElements>
           </configuration>
        </plugin>
     </plugins>
</build>


thank you

Stéphane
