In a project of mine I have a dependency on a java matrix library MTJ which I specify like this in build.gradle:
dependencies {
...
compile 'com.googlecode.matrix-toolkits-java:mtj:1.0.4'
...
}
MTJ in turns depends on netlib, more concretely it would be the equivalent of explicitly adding compile 'com.github.fommil.netlib:all:1.1.2' above.
When I run the gradle build. I get the following error:
Could not expand ZIP '/Users/valentin/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/com.github.fommil.netlib/all/1.1.2/f235011206ac009adad2d6607f222649aba5ca9e/all-1.1.2.pom'.
archive is not a ZIP archive.
So somehow gradle is confused and treats the file as been a zip file when it is just a pom that points to other dependencies.
Anyone has a fix or knows of a workaround?
Please have a look here. The dependency you specified is of type pom - this type in maven is used to aggregate projects. Gradle downloads it, tries to unzip and fails. It seems that this is not what you're looking for.
Here you can find other artifacts for group: com.github.fommil.netlib. Please find a jar you're looking for and specify the dependency directly.

I a maven rookie and am wondering how to get a binary jar file if it is not already in the repo. Specifically i'm in need of: jackson-dataformats-text-2.13.0.jar. Do I need to build it myself? I'm used to creating a project and marking a library as a dependency and seeing the jar downloaded into my .m2 cache but all i see in my cache is:
jchan#jchan-Z170N:~/.m2/repository/com/fasterxml/jackson/dataformat/jackson-dataformats-text/2.13.0$ ls
jackson-dataformats-text-2.13.0.jar.lastUpdated jackson-dataformats-text-2.13.0.pom.sha1
jackson-dataformats-text-2.13.0.pom _remote.repositories
Can someone advise how I am to get a built version of the jar from maven central?
We are still maintaining our ant build and I need the jar file for this. (i know i know, ancient stuff but team is not ready to port just yet).
parent pom don't contain jar file
This is the reason why no bundle link is present on the official public maven repository https://mvnrepository.com
The maven dependency is not a jar, is a parent. So the extension is: .pom which is just a plain pom.xml
Parent dependencies don't contain compiled class like .jar.
In your specific case, there are another dependencies who contains jars:
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/fasterxml/jackson/dataformat/jackson-dataformat-yaml/2.13.0/
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/fasterxml/jackson/dataformat/jackson-dataformat-xml/2.13.0/
advice
Check what classes do you need on your ant project and search if exist a jar (with the classes you need) on https://mvnrepository.com
Another option is to get all the dependencies from pom :
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/fasterxml/jackson/dataformat/jackson-dataformats-text/2.9.0/jackson-dataformats-text-2.9.0.pom and download them into your ant project. In theory is the same of add the parent pom in a maven project
I am trying to install some dependencies using maven in a spring boot project.
I am looking for a jar
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:jar:3.1.0
But I wanna know if the jar file should have this name maven-resources-plugin, or if the file name is not important for maven. I mean if maven will automatically know which jar file should use.
I will appreciate any help or feedback.
That is a plugin, not a dependency as such (meaning that Maven needs it for building your project, your code doesn't need it to compile or run).
You should only have to specify the plugins groupId, artifactId and version plus any configuration in your pom.xml, and Maven knows exactly what jar to get and how to use it.
See https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-resources-plugin/plugin-info.html for further information.
We migrated our maven code to gradle. When we build, we are getting error as Could not resolve all files for configuration ':***-war:compileClasspath'.
Could not find mockito-core.jar (org.mockito:mockito-core:2.8.9).
We are not referring to this jar itself.. neither we are able to locate in our code nor in pom...
How to figure out?
how to configure gradle to compile code if jar doesn't exist and pom exists in the repository or locally ?
If you can't work out where it's coming from and you don't use it at all, then you can exclude the dependency from all the configurations:
configurations.all*.exclude group: "org.mockito", module: "mockito-core"
If the dependency isn't appearing in the dependency report, then I'm somewhat at a loss as to why Gradle is complaining about it. The only other option I can think of is that some plugin is adding it in a non-standard way.
Now, i have a project which runs fine on my windows computer. But after I copied it to a linux computer, when compiling it reports following error:
Failed to execute goal on project alert: Could not resolve dependencies for project com.cloud.ras:alert.
The POM for com.external:commons-logging:jar:1.0.4.1 is missing, no dependency information available
The POM for com.external:freemarker:jar:2.3.4 is missing, no dependency information available
The POM for com.external:log4j:jar:1.2.14 is missing, no dependency information available
The POM for com.soa.lib:eBoxServiceCommon:jar:2.5.3 is missing, no dependency information available
but i have copied these jars to the maven repository. And can anyone give me a help?
You should NOT copy JARs in the first place. That's Maven job to resolve the dependencies for you.
It would be helpful if you explain the reason why you need to use your own groupId e.g. com.external in the first place i.e. commons-logging is from Apache but you use com.external as its groupId.
If you really insist on wanting to use your own groupId, at least download the JAR and install it using Maven. See here:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-3rd-party-jars-local.html.
I am trying to move my MyEclipes projects to maven. But of course there are problems. After creating a web priject I get missing jar files - about 5
org.springframework.security jar files e.g. org.springframework.security.ldap-3.0.5.RELEASE
show as missing in the jar build path. They are not in the corresponding .m2 directory. I un-installed ME4S, and deleted .m2, which force .me to be rebuilt on re-install, but it has the same problem.
How do I fix this?
It would be very helpful to understand how the .m2 process works - where is this coming from and how is it controlled?
I am not sure about the MyEclipse part, but this seems to be a pure maven question.
Maven (2/3) uses the pom.xml. This file describe your project. In that file you should define a list of dependencies (which can have their own dependencies and so on).
Maven read the pom.xml and build the classpath accordingly using direct and transitive dependencies.
You can use the mvn dependency:tree command to see how your classpath is built.
