Greetings all. I'm new to this list, and indeed to Maven also. I'm currently evaluating Maven for use in our build system, and I've come across a problem I haven't found a solution to in the docs - or through googling the web.
The problem is this; I've selected the lowest level component in our system (a "common" component) as the "test subject". This component includes som InstallAnywhere gizmos as well. As you might be aware Install Anywhere's redistributable is in form of a IAClasses.zip file. So I've added the following to the project.xml file: <dependency> <groupId>zerog</groupId> <type>zip</type> <artifactId>IAClasses</artifactId> <version>na</version> <url>lib/ext in VOB</url> </dependency> This fails miserably with "cannot resolve symbol" errors during "maven java:compile". Renaming the ZIP to a JAR (and relocating in the repository, as well as updating project.xml) makes the "maven java:compile" finish successfullly.. I'm sure it's something obvious I've overlooked - but if someone could help me I'd appreciate it greatly.
