Hi Danny, Im not sure this is exactly what you want but, if you have an inhouse repo, like proximity[1], you can deploy your vendor jar to that and include custom pom[2] that has its dependencies configured. This will allow you to have just the one jar as a dep of your project, but when maven downloads it it will pull in all the other deps as specified in the pom. I dont know if this can be done with your local repository via the install:install-file goal.

Hi, I am developing a project using a jar supplied by a vendor. Their jar depends on all kinds of other jars, like activation.jar, etc. I can easily install those other jars into my repository following the instructions in the Guide to installing 3rd party jars. But how do I install the vendor supplied jar in such a way that gives me the advantage of transitive dependencies? That is to say, I want my project to directly depend only on their jar, not all those other jars. -- Danny MacMillan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
