Hi, I'm trying to get jide-oss project in the repository on dev.java.net. The people of jidesoft have done this, but for Windows users, it does not work. The jide-oss pom has only 1 dependency:
<dependency> <groupId>aqua</groupId> <artifactId>aqua</artifactId> <version>5.0</version> <scope>system</scope> <systemPath>${basedir}/libs/laf.jar</systemPath> </dependency> Maven complains with: Validation Errors: [DEBUG] For dependency Dependency {groupId=aqua, artifactId=aqua, version= 5.0, type=jar}: system-scoped dependency must specify an absolute path systemPath. [DEBUG] I tried adding <optional>true</optional>, but that gives the same problem. I also tried <exclusion/> in my pom, but that did not help either. What is the best way to solve this? regards, Wim -- Vigilog - an open source log file viewer: http://vigilog.sourceforge.net Blog: http://www.jroller.com/page/Fester
