Re: Issue in dependency resolution to zip file (having muliple jars)

[Olivier Dehon <od...@gmail.com>]

Murali,

One way to solve this problem is to create a pom instead of a zip.
The pom will have all the dependencies on your JARs.
Then, project B can include a dependency to the pom project to get all
of the JARs (transitively) in the classpath when building.
