I want to debug my maven project. I add a dependency Test that I have developped like this:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.company.group</groupId>
<artifactId>test</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
when I debug my program and I enter into Test dependent method I see /* compiled code */. If I click on attach source It does nothing and if I click on download source, I get a pop up message saying:
Cannot download sources,
Sources not found for:
com.mycompany.group:test:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT
I also tried to execute :
mvn dependency:sources
But when I try to enter my dependent method I just see /* compiled code */
Do you have any idea?
It's not uncommon for sources to be unavailable for custom jars, since developers would have to explicitly create a source jar using the Maven Source
Plugin and install this jar in a remote repository. There's a Maven cookbook page for this as well.
If you have no way of adding sources for your dependencies, then I think your best bet would be to use a decompiler.

I tried to use the milo opc-ua Implementation. At first I download the source with Eclipse/Maven to my local working directory.
File -> Import -> "Checkout Maven Projects"
The Download works fine for me. After this, I tried to update the project files.
Right-Click -> Update Maven Project
The "build-tools" work well for me, everything is done without any errors. But when I try this with the other "folders" (client-examples, ...) I get the following error:
Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-checkstyle-plugin:2.17:check (execution: validate, phase: validate).
The following code shows the pom-file of the client-examples:
http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
4.0.0
<parent>
<groupId>org.eclipse.milo</groupId>
<artifactId>milo-examples</artifactId>
<version>0.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</parent>
<artifactId>client-examples</artifactId>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.milo</groupId>
<artifactId>sdk-client</artifactId>
<version>0.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.milo</groupId>
<artifactId>server-examples</artifactId>
<version>0.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>ch.qos.logback</groupId>
<artifactId>logback-classic</artifactId>
<version>1.1.7</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
The pom.entries, shown in https://github.com/eclipse/milo, are in the file. I also checked this for the other sources. But whats going wrong?
I'm using eclipse-neon and maven2eclipse.
Thanks for helping,

The errors says that the M2Eclipse plugin has no idea how to map the execution of checkstyle into some build step for the IDE. M2Eclipse tries to set up your local IDE project to replicate the behavior of the Maven build.
By default M2Eclipse is missing the support for the checkstyle Maven plugin. Therefore you get this error. There are two ways to handle this:
You can simply make Eclipse ignore those errors
You can install the checkstyle plugin for Eclipse and have checkstyle run the same way the maven build does it, getting all validation information right into your IDE.
In order to install checkstyle do the following:
Locate the location where the error is reported in Eclipse, issue the "Quick fix" command (normally Ctrl-1)
Select "Discover new m2e connectors":
Review the dialog and press "Finish":
Wait and let Eclipse restart
That should be it.
Though I have configured the classpath and added the jar file in the library of the project , it still gives me an error as "package net.miginfocom.swing. does not exist".
What can I do to avoid this error?
You can use maven to automatically download MigLayout. Just click new project, select and maven from categories, then Java Application. Once created go into the "pom.xml" (within Project Files) and paste this under the properties section:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.miglayout</groupId>
<artifactId>miglayout</artifactId>
<version>3.7.4</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
Then just build the project and maven will download and install MigLayout. Hope this helps.
I have just added dependencies to an eclipse project so that my jar can see other jars. How can I be sure that the dependencies work, and that what I've done is correct? I view a pom.xml file that has been created so what are the target folder and classes,test-classes subfolders used for? Thanks
If you have the m2eclipse plugin installed you can open your pom in Eclipse and click on the Dependency Hierarchy tab to view your resolved dependencies. You should manage all dependencies through Maven with the setup you are describing.
If you want to check command line you may want to look at using Effective Pom.
If you use m2e, it adds Maven Dependencies pseudo library to your project.
You may expand it and see if the dependent jar file is in there.
If it is, Eclipse ( or more precisely m2e ) has resolved the dependency correctly and it's available for you project build.
If you added your dependencies correctly your application should build and execute correctly, or am I missing something? Dependencies should be added to a POM section that looks like this example:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>annogen</groupId>
<artifactId>annogen</artifactId>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</dependency>
<!-- other dependencies here -->
</dependencies>
Maven and the m2e/m2eclipse plugin rely on source files to be conventionally placed in src/main/java for application code and src/test/java for test code. Application code is compiled to target/classes and test code is compiled to target/test-classes. If you plan to use Maven and/or m2e/m2eclipse, do read about it. Maven: The Complete Reference is a good starting point.
I have a Eclipse project where Maven manages the dependencies. I have also few jar files that are not Maven enable and I locate them at src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib. I have no issue to build/run the project in Eclipse. I have no issue also to run "mvn:package" after I built the project in Eclipse. However, after I invoke "mvn:clean", if I run "mvn:package", I will get compilation error as it can't find dependency jar files under src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib. What I need to do is to rebuild the Eclipse project then "mvn:package". Therefore, I can't invoke "mvn:package" outside Eclipse IDE.
How to resolve this?
Thanks.
You have to put the not "Maven enabled artifacts" to an appropriate Maven Repository (Nexus, Artifactory what ever) and than change your project to use the dependencies appropriately. Furthermore either you do Maven or not but nothing in between. Maven is a build tool and not only for dependency management. After those changes working with Eclipse will work fine (if you use M2Eclipse). If you correctly use Maven you can do both things via Eclipse or call mvn package on command line.
If you can not set up a recommended environment (maven repository) you can add the dependencies as System dependencies to your pom.xml.
<project>
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>foo</groupId>
<artifactId>bar</artifactId>
<version>1.2.3</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>${basedir}/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib/foobar.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
...
</project>
I've created a Maven project and added the dependencies (jar files) that I need; however, netbeans says that it still cannot find it.
Specifically in my case, I added the jmf-2.1.1e.jar file into my dependencies folder. When I go back to my program it still gives me the compile error that it cannot find the javax.media package.
Did you let Netbeans manage the dependency?
In your "Projects" listing, find and context+click on the "Dependencies" folder in the list. From the context menu, choose "Add Dependency".
This approach works at least in NetBeans 7.4 and 8.0 beta.
Make sure that your pom.xml has the following snippet that defines the dependency
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.media</groupId>
<artifactId>jmf</artifactId>
<version>2.1.1e</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
The dependency is available in Maven Central. Add the pom snippet manually to the pom.xml and run Maven in the shell and let it download the dependency. This should resolve your issue.
Maven automatically downloads the dependency once specified in the pom.xml. For this you would have to build your project with the dependency as specified by Tim Sparg.
