Spring 4.0.6 release - #RequestMapping issue - eclipse

I have downloaded (using Maven) Spring release 4.0.6. How ever in the Controller class I got an error.
#RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
The error was that #RequestMapping was not found. STC/Eclipse itself gave a suggestion to resolve it. And when I clicked on the suggestion it mentioned about copying some thing to /.m2/repository. And then the error was fixed as well.
What exactly did STC/Eclipse IDE do?

It is likely that STS/Eclipse added the spring-webmvc dependency to your pom.xml.
This triggered maven to donload that depency from maven central to your local maven repository cache (.m2 folder).
Because the spring-webmvc dependency was added to your pom.xml its the jar and its classes becomes available for your project.

Liquibase resource found in both Maven target and Maven repository

I have Eclipse Maven GWT project and I added flowable-form-engine dependency that uses Liquibase. Liquibase is searching for changelog file org/flowable/form/db/liquibase/flowable-form-db-changelog.xml but finds two!

So I debugged it and it finds one resource from target directory:
jar:file:/C:/work/git/coarui/target/Main-1.0-SNAPSHOT/WEB-INF/lib/flowable-form-engine-6.4.0.jar!/org/flowable/form/db/liquibase/flowable-form-db-changelog.xml
and other resource from maven repository:
jar:file:/C:/Users/Piro/.m2/repository/org/flowable/flowable-form-engine/6.4.0/flowable-form-engine-6.4.0.jar!/org/flowable/form/db/liquibase/flowable-form-db-changelog.xml
Is there a way to ignore one of them, or is my build path or dependency definition wrong?
My build path contains:
src/main/java sources
src/test/java sources
JRE System library
Maven dependencies (in C:/Users/Piro/.m2/repository...)
JUnit4
Looking at source code resources are read classLoader.getResources(path); where class loader is jetty class loader JettyLauncher$WebAppContextWithReload$WebAppClassLoaderExtension.
In my run/debug configuration I have classpath similar to build path plus GWT library gwt-dev-2.8.1.jar - C:\Users\Piro\.m2\repository\com\google\gwt\gwt-dev\2.8.1
In pom.xml dependency is defined as:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.flowable</groupId>
<artifactId>flowable-form-engine-configurator</artifactId>
<version>${flowableVersion}</version>
</dependency>
Maven GWT plugin groupId=net.ltgt.gwt.maven, artifactId=gwt-maven-plugin has configuration parameter classpathScope but I tested <classpathScope>compile+runtime</classpathScope>, <classpathScope>compile</classpathScope> and <classpathScope>runtime</classpathScope> and the same error occurs.
Searching the internet I found similar posts on flowable forum (1, 2) but no solution is provided.
This generally happens when you mix client and server code in the same Maven module, and given how GWT works there's no (easy) around that, besides splitting your code in separate client and server (and possibly shared) Maven modules.
You can have a look at https://github.com/tbroyer/gwt-maven-archetypes for examples (disclaimer: I'm the author, but also a member of GWT's Steering Committee)
it seems that for some reason your .m2 is in the classpath. If it really makes sense to you then you can try to use <scope>provided</scope> in a pom where you declare dependency to flowable-form-engine-configurator. However you may decide to exclude .m2 from classpath which is better I think.

Eclipse maven not adding dependencies

I am new to maven and am experiencing difficulties while trying to mavenise a Java project.
Setting:
IDE: Eclipse Oxygen.2 Release (4.7.2)
Java: 8
m2e: 1.8.2
What I did:
- copy-pasted the entire original java project and renamed it
- right-click in eclipse: Configure > Convert to Maven project
- in java build path, deletion of libraries import from original local lib repo. The build path shows the Maven Dependencies folder, with the only junit library.
- maven install => downloaded things in the user/.m2/repository/, but not all.
What does not work:
When I try to add a dependency right from a file:
,
nothing pops up in the artifact selection windows, even though there is a commons-logging/ folder in m2/repository
When I try to add the dependency manually in the pom.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.kie.modules</groupId>
<artifactId>org-apache-commons-configuration-main</artifactId>
<version>6.5.0.Final</version>
<type>pom</type>
</dependency>
but the package resolution error still appears in the java file, and I get this warning after Maven install
`[WARNING] The POM for org.kie.modules:org-apache-commons-configuration-main:pom:6.5.0.Final is invalid, transitive dependencies (if any) will not be available, enable debug logging for more details`
I did Maven Update project, eclipse project clean, nothing changes.
My goal for now is just that eclipse understands (at least for one library), that it has to take it from maven repository. I still have many other dependencies to solve (intra-project), but that will be the next step.
Thanks for your help.
The cause of the issue is stated in the warning message :
[WARNING] The POM for
org.kie.modules:org-apache-commons-configuration-main:pom:6.5.0.Final
is invalid, transitive dependencies (if any) will not be available,
enable debug logging for more details
It means that the pom.xml downloaded in your local maven repository exists but is not valid.
Delete the folder of the dependency downloaded in your local maven repository and try again.
If you still have the same problem, check that your central repository that provides the dependency provides also correctly the pom.xml for that.
You can do it by browsing the directory of the dependency from a web browser.
For example we can see that the maven central repository provides a valid pom :
http://central.maven.org/maven2/org/kie/modules/org-apache-commons-collections-main/6.5.0.Final/org-apache-commons-collections-main-6.5.0.Final.pom

SBT 1.x fails to resolve parent pom

My SBT 1.1.0 setup fails to resolve parent dependency as a POM file.
We have several libraries published in a local Sonatype repository. All of them depend on 1 maven project with <packaging>pom</packaging> property set. So there is no JAR file in the repo, only declarative POM file for this parent project and this POM is available and accessible.
SBT 0.13.17 resolves this chain successfully and downloads libraries plus this parent POM.
But SBT 1.x fails with error:
unresolved dependency: ... unable to get resource for commons-dependencies-parent-2.165.jar
It's trying to download JAR instead of POM file.
I was trying to specify this parent dependency explicitly with
"com.zeptolab.commons" % "commons-dependencies-parent" % "2.165"
But the bug persists.
Any ideas or workarounds? Have already switched all projects to SBT 1.1.0 except this one due to this problem.
UPD. Custom resolver is properly set up and working with sbt 0.13.17
UPD2 Made an issue https://github.com/sbt/sbt/issues/3953
Found a workaround for this issue. Looks like there is a bug in new http client.
So setting updateOptions := updateOptions.value.withGigahorse(false) helps.

Spring 3.1 NoClassDefFoundError ListableBeanFactory

I am trying to upgrade an old project from Spring 2.5.6 to Spring 3.1.0. The project is not built with Maven so I had to add the jars manually to the build path.
The application uses Eclipse RAP as well as Spring.
I added all the Spring 3.1 jars in my build path:
lib/org.springframework.aop-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.asm-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.aspects-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.beans-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.context-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.context.support-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.core-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.expression-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.instrument-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.instrument.tomcat-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.jdbc-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.jms-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.orm-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.oxm-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.test-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.transaction-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.web-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.web.portlet-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.web.servlet-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
lib/org.springframework.web.struts-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
and I also listed them in the MANIFEST.MF.
The project builds fine, but at runtime when trying to login it gives me the following error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/beans/factory/ListableBeanFactory
I looked in the beans jar and the class is definitely there. I also searched through the project and the class is not used explicitly anywhere.
What could cause this? Thank you in advance.
This class does not exist in Spring 3.1.0. See http://www.jarfinder.com/index.php/java/info/org.springframework.beans.factory.ListableBeanFactory

Only a type can be imported. org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook resolves to a package

Trying to use Apache POI in a Eclipse JSP project. The POI jar is in the project's Java Resources Library list.
<%# page import="org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFSheet"%>
at run the following error occurs:
An error occurred at line: 7 in the
generated java file Only a type can be
imported.
org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook
resolves to a package
Any ideas? Thanks
Don Lawton
The message indicates that the class could not be found on the classpath of your deployed application. Did you make sure that the POI jar is in your WEB-INF/lib folder?
Same happened to me, even when the needed jars were indeed in the WEB-INF folder.
I was using the provided server in SpringSource ToolSuite (STS). It took me several attempts to clean, republish, etc... before it finally worked.
