I'm persuading my Team Leader to use Maven as build tool, but I have to
demonstrate him that with Maven we'll handle our project dependencies
effortless.
I've obtained good results, but I have some problems with some jar libraries
provided, through a quite complex installation process, by a software.
So I've tried to create an "empty" Maven artifact which has these libraries
as system dependencies (yes, the dependency scope is system).
After I installed the artifact, I inserted it as a compile dependency for
another project called, for example, ABC. But when I try to resolve projects
dependencies I obtain the following message:
[WARNING] POM for ''<artifact-info>" is invalid. It will be ignored for
artifact resolution.
Reason: Failed to validate POM for project
<artifact-info>
And the resolution fails.
Instead if I put these libraries as system dependencies of project ABC,
everything works. I think, because it's not written in Maven documentation,
that system dependencies are not transitive....I'm right ??
But my question is: I can use these external libraries as dependencies
without put them in a local repository ??
Thank you for help,
Claudio Di Vita
