Sorry you'll have to excuse my ignorance as I am still new to Maven. But when you say "set the 'scope' of the jar as 'system' in dependency, then set 'systemPath' to the path of the jar."

It's not usually desired, but you can set the "scope" of the jar as "system" in dependency, then set "systemPath" to the path of the jar.
