In my pom.xml, I added this dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-jpamodelgen</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<!-- Annotation processor that raising compilation errors whenever constraint
annotations are incorrectly used. -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-validator-annotation-processor</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
When I compile and install the project by executing "mvn clean install" at terminal, the model classes are generated in this directory:
target/generated-sources/annotations/com/myproject/ne/model/
Then if I import this Maven project from Eclipse, it works all fine without complaining the model classes automatically generated.
However, if I don't execute "mvn clean install" at a terminal to generate the model classes and directly import the clean project, Eclipse doesn't generate the model classes, and therefore generates compilation errors.
What's needed to use the hibernate-jpamodelgen to automatically when a clean maven project is imported and compiled?
You can achieve it by enabling it with annotation processing.
In eclipse right click on project --> properties --> Java Compiler --> Annotation Processing --> Factory Path enable it.
Now populate the .factorypath file at the root of your project with the following contents:
<factorypath>
<factorypathentry kind="PLUGIN" id="org.eclipse.jst.ws.annotations.core" enabled="true" runInBatchMode="false"/>
<factorypathentry kind="VARJAR" id="M2_REPO/org/hibernate/hibernate-jpamodelgen/1.0.0.Final/hibernate-jpamodelgen-1.0.0.Final.jar" enabled="true" runInBatchMode="false"/>
<factorypathentry kind="VARJAR" id="M2_REPO/org/hibernate/javax/persistence/hibernate-jpa-2.0-api/1.0.0.Final/hibernate-jpa-2.0-api-1.0.0.Final.jar" enabled="true" runInBatchMode="false"/>
</factorypath>
Refresh the project in Eclipse
Follow #Tanvi B answer, and 1 more step:
project --> properties --> Java Compiler --> Annotation Processing:
Enable project specific settings (check all). And at Generated source directory, you have to define target/generated-sources

I'm using eclipse with maven and I would like to include two struts tags :
<%# taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags" %>
<%# taglib prefix="sj" uri="/struts-jquery-tags" %>
<%# taglib prefix="sb" uri="/struts-bootstrap-tags" %>
The problem is that the compiler says :
Can not find the tag library descriptor for "/struts-jquery-tags"
The library is correctly downloaded by maven through this declaration:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId>
<artifactId>struts2-core</artifactId>
<version>2.5.8</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId>
<artifactId>struts2-convention-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5.8</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.jgeppert.struts2.bootstrap</groupId>
<artifactId>struts2-bootstrap-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.jgeppert.struts2.jquery</groupId>
<artifactId>struts2-jquery-plugin</artifactId>
<version>4.0.1</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
The maven dependencies are in the project's build path.
Why the struts-jquery-tags is not imported ?
PS : when I add the struts-jquery-tags's jar manually, I have no errors.
(There is another post dealing with the same problem but the answers are not relevant in my case).
Make sure that your project is maven enabled. Right click on your project select configure and then convert to maven project.
Then make sure you have maven dependencies set correctly.
In the eclipse right click on your project and select Build Path > Configure build path ... The select Libraries tabs. Make sure you have the Maven Dependencies in the list of your libraries. If the it is not there select Add Liberary and then Maven Managed Dependencies
I hope this will be a Eclipse issue.
I guess you've created a Dynamic Web Project and then converted it to a Maven project. When a struts project created in this way there are chances of getting errors which you mentioned.
As long as your project is running smoothly in the deployed server you need not to pay attention towards these.
I suggest to create struts2 project from maven repository. If project created in this way these kind of errors can be avoided.
The jar file is available here. You have the problem of downloading/packaging jar file. struts-jquery-tags is not imported because the plugin is not available on classpath.
If you need additional info you can check docs Building with Maven.
Maven compilation failes even after adding the external jars to eclipse. My Eclipse codes are okay with external jars, however when I compile Maven complains package blah blah not found, and I have almost 50 external packages.
I will use the mvn dependency to add the jars later.
However It should work, but not luck.
Any troubleshooting/suggestion please.
I think you can not get away with Maven Project without having <dependencies> tag in your pom.xml (Whether you run it from eclipse or from command-line) . That too for the project which is dependent on classes that are coming from 50 external jars.
If you don't want maven to look for these jars, you have to add below entry in pom.xml with system scope:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>selenium-server-standalone</groupId>
<artifactId>selenium-server-standalone</artifactId>
<version>2.46.0</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>${project.basedir}/lib/selenium-server-standalone-2.46.0.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
With this, groupID & artifactID are meaningless. You can write such 50 <dependency> tags for referring your 50 external jars.
I’m using STS 2.9.1 (build on Eclipse 3.7.2) with m2e plugin bundled with STS (v1.0.200.20111228-1245).
I have a problem regarding missing dependencies in Eclipse project that contains several modules, or maybe I don’t fully understand how it should work.
It’s a maven project.
In my Project > Properties > Java Build Path > Libraries I have “Maven Dependencies” library, but it's empty (and that’s the problem).
The main POM doesn’t have any dependencies, but it has several modules declared in it.
Adding a dependency to module’s POM doesn’t add it to the “Maven Dependencies” library (what was my expectation) and leads to Eclipse showing errors in source files.
Adding a dependency to the main POM adds it to the “MD” lib, but of course I don’t want to add all of my modules’ dependencies to the main POM just to have it in “MD” lib and adding every single dependency to the Build Path doesn’t seem right nor practical.
I’ve tried:
Project > Clean,
Maven > Update dependencies,
Maven > Update project configuration,
Unchecking the checkbox: Project > Properties > Maven > Resolve dependencies from Workspace projects.
None of the above seems to do the trick.
Example:
Simplified project structure:
simple.project
...
sample-module
...
pom.xml
pom.xml
simple.project/pom.xml:
<project ...>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>test</groupId>
<artifactId>simple.project</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
<modules>
<module>sample-module</module>
</modules>
<dependencies>
<dependency><!-- This dependency is present in "MD" lib. -->
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>2.5</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</project>
simple.project/sample-module/pom.xml:
<project ...>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<parent>
<artifactId>simple.project</artifactId>
<groupId>test</groupId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</parent>
<groupId>test</groupId>
<artifactId>sample-module</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<dependencies>
<dependency><!-- I've expected this dependency also to appear in "MD" lib. -->
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>3.8.1</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</project>
It is not supposed to work. A project only imports a dependency from another one if it depends on that project (using dependency) or if it inherits from it (using parent). The module element only represents an aggregation.
The question is from time ago, but I solved this creating a Maven Project and adding Maven Modules: right click on project and "New > Project... > Maven > Maven Module".
After that, no more errors were shown in code.
First thing that I see is that you're defining dependencies in a pom parent. There I would expect to see a <dependencyManagement> (see here the doc) structure. In this way the submodules will inherit properly those common dependencies.
Aside from that lets start for the most simple test. Try to compile your project from the maven utility in the command line. If it works then you have a problem in your Eclipse configuration, otherwise the problem is in the way you have defined your project.
If your project compiles properly from the command line, lets see what else can be happening.
The fact that the Maven Dependencies Library is empty means that the Eclipse Maven plugin is not resolving properly your poms. I had quite bad experiences with the embedded STS maven plugin. Try to downgrade it to the m2e 0.10 version. You only need to open the STS DashBoard / Find Updates / Install m2e 0.10
I hope some of these tips can help you.
Before importing my Maven project, I build it using the following: mvn clean install
I then create the necessary Eclipse files as follows: mvn -Dwtpversion=2.0 eclipse:eclipse
I notice that my Referenced Libraries in Eclipse contains this jar: validation-api-1.0.0.GA.jar
However, when I view the effective POM in Eclipse no such jar appears. Therefore, I am wondering how this jar gets added to my Eclipse classpath?
I require this jar for #Valid annotation I am using and I need Maven to be aware of it. If I build my classpath files using Maven then how come Maven is not aware of it?
Thanks
Check the Dependency hierarchy-tab in your pom (in Eclipse), maybe the jar is a dependency of some other jar you use.
In this case, the reference was in the project's Java Build Path, and was probably added when the project was created because of the -Dwtpversion=2.0 -parameter.
Maven also adds to your class path the sub-dependencies of your main dependencies (which are those specifically declared by you in the pom.xml). Do a
mvn dependency:tree -Dverbose
To see what other dependencies are pulled in with a specific pom-declared dependency.
Also, if you only wanna see the subdependencies of a certain dependency, called x.y.z you can do:
mvn dependency:tree -Dverbose -Dincludes=x.y.z
(where x.y is the groupId and z is the artefactId)
One of your project dependencies probably has a dependency for this jar file. Check the graphical dependency graph or just search for that, find out your project dependency that is dependent on this and exclude this dependency, if possible, by using maven's 'exclude' tags.
You can use maven dependency exclusions, as below:
<project>
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>sample.ProjectA</groupId>
<artifactId>Project-A</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
<exclusions>
<exclusion> <!-- declare the exclusion here -->
<groupId>sample.ProjectB</groupId>
<artifactId>Project-B</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</project>
Source: Maven - Dependency Exclusions
I have encountered the same problem. And after some research I realized that transitive dependencies of your parent pom may not show up in Effective POM, but would be present in Reference libraries.
The whole confusion raised because when I ran the following command
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=X (where X is the group-id of the jar I was looking for)
It did no mention of parent pom, instead it referred to dependency in parent pom which brings X to the table. (Which make sense because we inherit from parent pom).
Im trying to understand maven profiles and have run into the following issue.
This is my simplified example, I have two maven projects, project A and Project B.
project A has a compile time maven dependency on project B.
project B includes a runtime dependency (lets say to project C) when the maven profile "TEST" is active.
so the problem is the class path generated when I run project A. it doesn't have project C in it, even though the TEST profile is active for project A.
this is using eclipse Helios service release 1, Maven Integration for Eclipse plugin vrs 0.10.2.20100623-1649
any ideas?
I'm not sure that profiles are the best way to handle with TEST.
The use of profile to change dependecies will change the POM of the generated project.
If you install Project B with TEST activated, the runtime dependency will be added. (Whatever project A profile).
Optional dependencies are not added by transitivity. You need to add the dependency in project A.
I just tested this in Eclipse using m2eclipse 0.12.x. The second project pom.xml look like this:
<project>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>org.test</groupId>
<artifactId>test2</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>TEST</id>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.test</groupId>
<artifactId>test1</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</profile>
</profiles>
</project>
Then I set profile TEST as an active on Maven panel in the project properties dialog and made sure dependency resolution from Workspace is enabled there.
After that you can run any classes from test2 project's src/main/java and generated classpath looks like this:
C:\Dev\Java1.6\bin\javaw.exe -Dfile.encoding=Cp1252
-classpath C:\Dev\Workspace\test2\target\classes;C:\Dev\Workspace\test1\target\classes org.test2.Test2
Note, that dependencies with runtime scope only works for "Java Application" launch configuration type in Eclipse, but not for "JUnit" launch configuration, which uses different classpath resolver provided by m2eclipse's JDT integration.
It seems dependencies that are within profiles of dependent projects (transitive) dont give there runtime dependencies to the person who depends on them, This seems strange.
A work around was to add the profiles (containing the dependencies) to a parent then the children inherit the dependencies.
i.e. introduce a parent to A, I could have put them directly in A as YMomb kindly suggested. but its the inheritance aspect of this issue I needed to resolve as I have lots of projects As.
