Re: Newbie: How to configure 3rd party and internal dependencies in project.xml

eg:
<dependency>
  <groupId>xalan</groupId>
  <artifactId>xalan</artifactId>
  <version>2.4.1</version>
</dependency>

This gets xalan-2.4.1.jar from a repository, specified by
maven.repo.remote, which by default points to http://www.ibiblio.org

To put your own JARs in your local repo, just copy them into groupId/jars/artifactId-version.jar

eg
repository/com.mycompany/jars/nmr-1.4.jar

Corresponds to groupId = com.mycompany, artifactID = nmr, version = 1.4

If that project is mavenised, maven jar:install does this.

I like to set up a HTTP server or file location for a local repository
that isn't directly what Maven uses. To do this, setup the URL of it in
maven.repo.remote in ~/build.properties.

If your project is mavenised, you would then use maven jar:deploy to put
your artifacts into that repository.

Cheers.
Brett
