Thanks, Richard, I'll definitely try this plugin out. -----Original Message----- From: Richard Allen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 2:16 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: Packaging dependent jars within a jar project
You could also try using the dependency-maven-plugin (http://mojo.codehaus.org/dependency-maven-plugin/) to copy or unpack your dependent JARs into your target folder before the package phase. For instance: <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> <artifactId>dependency-maven-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <id>unpack</id> <phase>process-resources</phase><!-- Or some other phase before package. --> <goals> <goal>unpack</goal> </goals> <configuration> <artifactItems> <artifactItem> <groupId>big-project</groupId> <artifactId>local-model</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <type>jar</type> </artifactItem> </artifactItems> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}</outputDirectory> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build> Good luck, Richard Allen Dov Wasserman wrote: >I have been trying to find a way to get Maven to produce a jar artifact >that includes (some of) its dependent artifacts, without much luck.
