Single dependency - multiple jars

[Ciaran Treanor <ci...@capetechnologies.com>]

Hi,
I've got a JDBC driver (MS) that is comprised of three jar files.
Is it legal to have a dependency that looks like:

<dependency>
   <id>mssqlserver</id>
   <version/>
   <jar>msbase.jar</jar>
   <jar>mssqlserver.jar</jar>
   <jar>msutil.jar</jar>
</dependency>

If not, should I resort to manually creating a single jar file from
the contents of the three and referencing that single file or is
there a more elegant way?

Thanks,
ct

Hi Ciaran,

I never tried that but ...:-)

You can also rename the stuff to e.g. mssql-mssqlserver-1.0b, mssql-
msbase and so on and

<dependency>
	<id>mssql+mssqlserver</id>
	<version>1.0b</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
	<id>mssql+msbase</id>
	<version>1.0b</version>
</dependency>

The "+" is a sort of undocumented feature use for ant-optional and 
similar stuff.
