Re: [m2] depend on version-less jars?
Hi Joe, http://maven.apache.org/faq.html#unversioned-jars Basically, unless the JAR will never change, it doesn't make sense to have it unversioned in the repository. I've never seen a product that only ever had one release :) I'd be giving these version 4.0 by the sounds of it. - Brett On 8/4/05, Joe Futrelle [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My project depends on Globus jars, many of which have no version information.

Re: [m2] depend on version-less jars?
This is unfortunately a common issue. Two cases I usually have: - library is not created versioned - I have to customize something and need to keep a local copy. What I usually to in order is: try and find the version I'm using, and add it to the JAR. Create a bogus version (can be any text). append the project name to the existing version number if there is one, and I have a local modification. It's completely flexible so I don't think you need to worry to much... best thing to do is create a private repository where you can dump all this stuff, maybe use a version of 0.0.CHECKME or something to make it easy to identify libs that will need later review. - Brill Pappin Joe Futrelle wrote: My project depends on Globus jars, many of which have no version information.
