Creating maven project

[sprabhu <sa...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

We am currently using ant for our build environment.
We are planning to use Maven for build process.

We already have all the third party jar libraries in our cvs repository.
In our maven project we want to use this jar files directly instead of
providing 
the groupid, artifactid and versionid.
Is there any way in Maven in which I can provide the full path of the jars 
on which the project depends.
All our projects use the same version of the third party jars so we have
removed 
the version number from the jar name.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Santosh

You can use <scope>system</scope> in your dependency declaration for
this. You can find more documentation online.

Having said that, you are STRONGLY advised against using system scope,
especially for new users, as it does not always work as you would
expect. Instead, you should use Maven the correct way -- with
artifacts in a repository, and dependency scopes based on your actual
needs etc.
