How do I start working with Balana in Maven project

Question

error Balana error I'm working on eclipse Luna and I have added Maven to eclipse, and now I want to work with Balana to test some policies that I had written it.

I have edited pom file and added this dependency:

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.wso2.balana</groupId>
        <artifactId>org.wso2.balana</artifactId>
        <version>1.1.12</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

When I try to start w+orking with Balana, by writing this code:

private static Balana balana;

private static void initBalana() {

try{
        // using file based policy repository. so set the policy location as system property
        String policyLocation = (new File(".")).getCanonicalPath() + File.separator + "resources";
        System.setProperty(FileBasedPolicyFinderModule.POLICY_DIR_PROPERTY, policyLocation);
    } catch (IOException e) {
        System.err.println("Can not locate policy repository");
    }
    // create default instance of Balana
    balana = Balana.getInstance();
}

It gave so many errors on most of the code!

Edited: First, it gave as the picture... I had tried to solve it, but other errors had appeared. As this:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/logging/LogFactory
at org.wso2.balana.Balana.<clinit>(Balana.java:96)

    at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
    at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
    ... 3 more

Any help... and Thanks...
