Maven dependency for UserCompatibilityHelper? - maven

I hope to add a Maven dependency so that I can use this class in my plugin:
com.atlassian.confluence.usercompatibility.UserCompatibilityHelper
What dependency should I add?
I installed Atlassian plugin SDK 6.2.14 and it seems that it does cover this class.

I believe you can use following dependency :
<dependency>
<groupId>com.atlassian.usercompatibility</groupId>
<artifactId>usercompatibility-confluence</artifactId>
<version>2.1.4</version>
</dependency>
You can also take a look at Atlassian Documentation about it.

DistributedMap feature: how to use it

How to use the Liberty's distributedmap feature in a Java application?
Where I can find the required Maven dependencies (com.ibm.websphere.cache..)?
The Maven dependencies for WebSphere features like the DistributedMap are defined in the https://github.com/WASdev/ci.maven.tools repository and they are published on Maven central.
The following dependency loads all APIs:
<dependency>
<groupId>net.wasdev.maven.tools.targets</groupId>
<artifactId>liberty-apis</artifactId>
<version>${liberty.dependency.version}</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
<type>pom</type>
</dependency>
The Maven coordinates for the distributedMap API would be:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.ibm.websphere.appserver.api</groupId>
<artifactId>com.ibm.websphere.appserver.api.distributedMap</artifactId>
<version>2.0.68</version>
</dependency>
Each release of Liberty will have a different version, but that is from 22.0.0.9 the latest version as of this response. I found this by using search.maven.org and searching for distributedMap. This should work for other features APIs as well.

Programmatically retrieve all Maven dependencies

How can I in an very easy way retrieve all direct and transitive dependencies for a given Maven POM in my own Java program?
I aware of the existing questions on Stackoverflow, especially the one using Ivy to resolve the dependencies. I am looking for a solution using Maven, which is able also to resolve the transitive dependencies.
If you need this during a Maven build, you can easily access it in a Maven plugin using project.getDependencies().
If you have a standalone Java program, you can use Maven resolver or the older Aether libraries to do the resolution.
I was now able to solve the problem by using JBoss Shrinkwrap.
Here is a code snipped similar to the one I now use in my tools:
MavenStrategyStage resolve =
Maven.configureResolver()
// do not consult Maven Central or any other repository
.workOffline()
// import the configuration of the given settings.xml
.fromFile(homeDir + "/jqa-release-environment/maven-settings.xml")
// load the POM you would like to analyse
.loadPomFromFile(pomFile)
.importCompileAndRuntimeDependencies()
.importRuntimeAndTestDependencies()
.resolve();
MavenWorkingSession mavenWorkingSession =
((MavenWorkingSessionContainer) resolve).getMavenWorkingSession();
List<MavenDependency> dependencies = new ArrayList<>();
dependencies.addAll(mavenWorkingSession.getDependenciesForResolution());
dependencies.addAll(mavenWorkingSession.getDependencyManagement());
To be able to use Shrinkwrap, I added the following dependencies to my POM.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.shrinkwrap.resolver</groupId>
<artifactId>shrinkwrap-resolver-depchain</artifactId>
<type>pom</type>
<version>3.1.4</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.shrinkwrap.resolver</groupId>
<artifactId>shrinkwrap-resolver-impl-maven</artifactId>
<version>3.1.4</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.shrinkwrap.resolver</groupId>
<artifactId>shrinkwrap-resolver-api-maven</artifactId>
<version>3.1.4</version>
</dependency>

Force latest version for maven dependencies

I have the following dependency (only so far) pom.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-data-jpa</artifactId>
<version>1.6.2.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
This dependency obviously depends on other "dependencies" via it's pom.xml... when maven finished downloading these dependencies I noticed that it didn't grab the latest version of the Spring stuff (4.0.6.RELEASE)... it grabbed a 3.2.x version.
How can I force maven to grab the latest version of the Spring stuff? Do I need to explicitly modify my pom.xml to include all the dependencies or is there some "magic" I can use for this?
Thanks.
Spring "Bill Of Materials"
Salvation may come from special "bill of materials" POMs supported by Maven and published by Spring. Quoting from Maven "Bill Of Materials" Dependency in their manual:
It is possible to accidentally mix different versions of Spring JARs when using Maven. For example, you may find that a third-party library, or another Spring project, pulls in a transitive dependency to an older release. If you forget to explicitly declare a direct dependency yourself, all sorts of unexpected issues can arise.
To overcome such problems Maven supports the concept of a "bill of materials" (BOM) dependency. You can import the spring-framework-bom in your dependencyManagement section to ensure that all spring dependencies (both direct and transitive) are at the same version.
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-framework-bom</artifactId>
<version>4.0.6.RELEASE</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
Would this work for you?
Looking at the spring-data-jpa artifact pom file, we can see that it has a parent called spring-data-parent with current version 1.4.2.RELEASE. It's pom describes dependencies and their versions. Currently spring version is at 3.2.10.RELEASE
One way you can possibly accomplish what you want is to add explicit dependency on spring artifacts. But you would still have to define their versions.

Unable to download saxon-he 9.5 with maven

Maven will not retrieve saxon 9.5, because it has two conflicting dependencies on jdom.
It turns out the second dependency :
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jdom</groupId>
<artifactId>jdom</artifactId>
<version>2.0.4</version>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>
should probably have "jdom2" as artifactId.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to override this?
Yes indeed you are right. I have raised this as a bug issue on the Saxon community site:
https://saxonica.plan.io/issues/2056
We will address the problem as soon as possible.
To override dependencies in maven I suggest look at the following:

How can I download a ZIP file with the Maven dependency plugin?

I'm trying to download a couple of dependencies from the command line using dependency:copy -Dartifact=...
However, one artifact looks like this as dependency
<dependency>
<groupId>foo</groupId>
<artifactId>xml-schemas</artifactId>
<version>1.10.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<classifier>public</classifier>
<type>zip</type>
</dependency>
How can I download this? What are the correct Maven coordinates?
Make sure you are using version 2.7 or later of the dependency plugin. Then it's
-Dartifact=<groupId>:<artifactId>:<version>:<type>:<classifier>
There is an example in the dependency:get section of the Maven dependency plugin usage docs.
