MAP supports the Maven project build system. We have a local "virtual" repository that will get you all the SASH2, Struts, etc dependencies for your project automatically. It also lets you deploy your own packages to share them either with your local team or with other teams.
Configuring Maven 2.0.x to use the MAP Virtual Repository
Edit your conf/settings.xml and add the following profile:
<profile>
<id>dev</id>
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>central</id>
<url>http://mv.ezproxy.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/artifactory/map</url>
<snapshots>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</snapshots>
</repository>
<repository>
<id>snapshots</id>
<url>http://mv.ezproxy.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/artifactory/map-snapshots</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
</repository>
</repositories>
<pluginRepositories>
<pluginRepository>
<id>central</id>
<url>http://mv.ezproxy.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/artifactory/map</url>
<snapshots>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</snapshots>
</pluginRepository>
<pluginRepository>
<id>snapshots</id>
<url>http://mv.ezproxy.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/artifactory/map-snapshots</url>
<releases>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</releases>
</pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>
</profile>
and make it the default profile:
<activeProfiles>
<activeProfile>dev</activeProfile>
</activeProfiles>
Configuring Eclipse to use Maven
Add the m2eclipse plugin site to your eclipse Software Update sites list and install the plugin:
http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/update/
You can now right click on your project and add dependencies via maven. Eclipse will also automatically deploy all the dependency jars to your local eclipse-configured tomcat.
