Hi How do I properly set the dependencies in my Maven POM, so I can use the latest SNAPSHOT of pdfbox?
I tried the following (https://pdfbox.apache.org/2.0/getting-started.html), which does not work at all: To use the latest 2.0 snapshot release from the SVN trunk, you'll need to add the following dependency: <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.pdfbox</groupId> <artifactId>pdfbox-app</artifactId> <version>2.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version></dependency> You'll also need to add the following repository: <repository> <id>ApacheSnapshot</id> <name>Apache Repository</name> <url>https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/</url> <snapshots> <enabled>true</enabled> </snapshots></repository> And why did the project change its name from pdfbox to pdfbox-app? Then I tried to download all the 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT JARS I could find at: https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/org/apache/pdfbox/ Adding them manually to the POM didn't work: <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.pdfbox</groupId> <artifactId>pdfbox</artifactId> <version>2.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <scope>system</scope> <systemPath>${project.basedir}/extLib/pdfbox-2.0.0-20150707.080520-1509.jar</systemPath> </dependency> Any ideas? Do I need the pdfbox or pdfbox-app artifact? How do I add potential dependencies like fontbox or jempbox (which hasn't been updated since 2014)? Also, it seems that the following packages do not form part of pdfbox anymore: import org.apache.pdfbox.exceptions.CryptographyException; import org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.encryption.BadSecurityHandlerException; import org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFOperator; Or this could be the result of my inability to properly set the POM dependencies.
