为什么JBoss Resteasy maven依赖项不起作用？

Question

I added

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
    <artifactId>resteasy-jaxrs-all</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.1.GA</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

and I'm using

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>jboss</id>
        <url>http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

When I try to build, I get the following error. What am I doing wrong?

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project tapvox-api: Could not resolve dependencies for project com.myproject.api:myproject-api:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT: Could not find artifact org.jboss.resteasy:resteasy-jaxrs-all:jar:2.2.1.GA in jboss ( http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public ) -> [Help 1]

Answer 1

The dependency that you are trying to download does not have any jars or transitive dependencies. Since the default type is jar, then this will fail. If you put

<type>pom</type>

in your dependency, then you get the only artifact that this dependency has to offer. See pom

I guess that you are trying to fetch the wrong dependency.

Answer 2

You have to specify a dependency type. Change your dependency to look like this:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
    <artifactId>resteasy-jaxrs-all</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.1.GA</version>
    <type>pom</type>                             <<<<<
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
