Question

What are the things that you must define for each external dependency?

Answer 1

External dependencies (library jar location) can be configured in pom.xml in same way as other dependencies are configured.

• First, specify groupId the same as the name of the library.
• Then specify artifactId the same as the name of the library.
• Thirdly, specify scope as a system.
• Lastly, specify the system path relative to the project location.
