Hi, Currently i am trying to get maven project setup which creates a jar artifact. I have setup the project structure. Unfortunately i we don't have the libraries in central repository as per maven layout and jars don't have version numbers. They are jars like product1.jar, product2.jar. These jars are the project dependencies. I was thinking of running ant task which will move the jars to necessary location and rename the jars during validate phase. After which i expect the compile to execute.
But i see that dependency resolution happens first before any tasks can be executed. Is it that i should write a separate ant script to do this before running maven. I am using maven 2.1.0. Is there a better way to accomplish this? Thanks, Vijay
