Maven2 build and package targets' classpath
Hi, I want to add a JAR archive to the CLASSPATH for the targets build/package. I don't want to include that JAR archive in my final WAR file. I read the documentation, and for that purpose I added in my pom.xml the following to the element: oracle oracle-jdbc 14 This artifact was successfully added by me doing: mvn install:install-file -Dfile=/opt/oracle/product/10g/jdbc/lib/ojdbc14.jar -DgroupId=oracle -DartifactId=oracle-jdbc -Dversion=14 -Dpackaging=jar Although when I run "mvn package" or "mvn compile" I get errors telling that the packages/classes defined in that JAR archive were not found in the classpath. How can I achieve this? Thank you. -- Filipe David Manana, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Obvious facts are like secrets to those not trained to see them.

I believe the "extensions" attribute is intended to make "dynamically discoverable" libraries available to maven plugins. In your case, probably what you want is provided which tells maven that the jar is needed for compilation and for tests, but that the environment the artifact will finally be deployed into already provides a copy of this so it should not be in the final bundle. Or maybe scope "optional" is what you are looking for. Again, optional jars are not in the final bundle although they are present in the classpath for compile and test phases.
