maybe, not sure if aether is really sufficient. probably it is enough for something like adding
jar 'slf4j:simple', '2.6.2' in your Gemfile and let aether resolve all deps for it. but I would like at put one more feature of ruby-maven into the discussion: you can declare jar-dependencies in your gemspec using the requirements like inhttp://rubygems.org/gems/nokogiri-maven it has s.requirements = ["jar 'msv:isorelax', '20050913'\njar 'thaiopensource:jing', '20030619'\njar 'nekohtml:nekodtd', '0.1.11'\njar 'net.sourceforge.nekohtml:nekohtml', '1.9.15'\njar 'xerces:xercesImpl', '2.9.0'\njar('org.jruby:jruby-complete', '1.6.4').scope :provided\n"] this ruby-maven uses to build up the classpath. so it is also an "extension" of gemspec. maybe that can be also implemented with the help of aether but I do not know. - Kristian On Tue, Nov 15, 2011 at 9:32 AM, Nick Klauer <kla...@gmail.com> wrote: > Has anyone looked at the Sonatype Aether > plugin(http://aether.sonatype.org/)?
