Spring MVC Maven-添加库

Question

I am creating a spring mvc application. I am came across maven recently and planning to use it with my current project.

I have downloaded maven and configured it on my machine and using the command line interface.

I created a project with following command:

mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.priyank -DartifactId=SpringWebApp -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp -DinteractiveMode=false

After that I updated my pom.xml file with dependencies:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">

After updating pom.xml from my command line I executed:

mvn install

which downloaded all dependencies in my local repo.

After that I converted it to my eclipse project using command:

mvn eclipse:eclipse -Dwtpversion=2.0

Now after importing this project SpringWebApp in my workspace I can see libraries included in manner like this:

Usually when I create Spring mvc without maven, I put my libraries under WEB-INF\\lib folder.

I am confused here. Seems I have done something wrong. What is the right way to include this libraries in project?

PS: This added jre 1.4 as my runtime, but I have changed it to 1.7

Answer 1

I prefer use m2e plugin include in eclipse to make .classpath / .project and .settings of eclipse configuration then eclipse:eclipse goal.

When you configure eclipse project with m2e plugin classpath libraries is done like this:

And all dependencies are deploy in WEB-INF/lib automatically by eclipse and into war by maven-war-plugin.

to force use of specific version of java you need to specify version in configuration of maven-compiler-plugin like this:

<plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
            <source>1.7</source>
            <target>1.7</target>
        </configuration>
</plugin>
