Option 1: Copy jar in local repo
Under dependencies section, add following block.
<dependency>
<!– groupId – 0 level directory name = you may give any name –>
<groupId>custom</groupId>
<!– artifactId- 1 level sub directory name = should be name of the jar without version number –>
<artifactId>simplecaptcha</artifactId>
<!– version- 2 level sub directory name = jar version mentioned in jar file name –>
<version>1.2.1</version>
</dependency>
Under C:\Users\<username>\.m2\repository
- Create directory with name as value you have given in <groupId></groupId>
-
- Go into this directory
-
- Create directory with name as value you have given in <artifactId></artifactId>
-
- Go into this directory
- Create directory with name as value you have given in <version></version>
-
- Copy your jar here
Example:
My file is stored here:
C:\Users\<username>\.m2\repository\custom\simplecaptcha\1.2.1\simplecaptcha-1.2.1.jar
Option 2: Use system scope
Example:
<!– Hibernate –>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
<version>4.3.6.Final</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>G:/Setups/hibernate-release-4.3.6.Final/hibernate-release-4.3.6.Final/lib/required/hibernate-core-4.3.6.Final.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
