external jar dependency

Hi All, 
 
I am new to maven 2 and I dont have any working exp on maven2 .Before this I have used ant as build tool. I have an application which requires lots of jar during compilation. I mean It has dependency on those jars.
So how I can include dependency for these jars. they dont have any version (as extended by name) like abc.jar (not abc-1.0.jar). All jar are in a folder lib.
 
Thanks
Vinay

Hi Vinay,

Maybe you could rename the jars, and add versioning info to them?
It won't break them and this greatly simplifies your dependency management
in the future..

Regards,
Jo
