dependency classpath order

[je...@accenture.com]

Hi,

 

My project depends on a lot of dependencies that can be found in the
online Maven repo, 

but also on a lot of own jars that were made to connect to web services
etc.

I installed them manually in the repo with mvn install:install-file.

 

Now I'm having this problem, when my classpath entries aren't in a
certain order, I can't run my project.

I always have to put them in the right order before packaging my
project.

So is there a way to define in which order the classpath entries have to
be?

 

I searched in the mailing list history, and I found a same issue with
Maven 1.1.

Jason Van Zyl, a member of the Mergere team, said back then, that the
order in the classpath corresponds to the order of the dependencies in
the pom.xml files.

 

It looks like this isn't exactly correct.

And what if I'm using modules in my project?

 

For example, in my top parent pom.xml, I declared the dependency log4j.

Every module uses log4j, so that's why I put that dependency in my
parent pom.

But after the build of my whole project, log4j is situated in the middle
of the classpath.

For so far Jason's explanation ...

 

Anybody an idea ?

 

Kind regards

 

Jelle

Hi Jelle,

You may need to update to the 2.0.5 build to get dependencies in the correct
order. This was the case with plugins and it may be that they fixed this
problem at the same time.

Cheers,

Greg J.
