use a dependency in system scope witout version

Hi 

 

Can I use a dependency with scope=system with no version number

 

I want to use  rt.jar which is inside C:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\lib . now
this jar doesn't has a verion number

How should I use ot

 

<dependency>

            <groupId>what to use here?</>

            <artifactId>What to use here?</>

            <version>what version if no version for the jar</>

            <scope>system</>

            <systemPath> C:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\lib</systemPath>

</dependency>

 

 

Regards,

Nishant Sonar

Hi,

have a look at the dependency guide [1] for the correct usage of system
scope dependencies. It boils down to: groupId/artifactId/version are
your choice (somthing like sun.jdk/runtime/1.5.0.11 will do in your
case), systemPath is not the path of the directory of the jar, but the
path of the jar itself.
