Maven2 and richfaces

[gjeudy]

Hi,

I'm a happy richfaces user and been using it with maven2. I couldnt find richfaces 3.2.1.GA in a downloadable format on jboss maven2 repo so I had to install manually the libraries in my maven2 intranet repo.

The problem with this approach is I miss transitive dependencies.

For example ResourceLoaderImpl needs commons-digester library. I had to add this runtime dependency manually in my maven2 pom.xml.

Is there a maven2 repo where I can get richfaces jar and their associated pom files ?

Its ResourceBuilderImpl, thats the stacktrace I got at runtime if i didnt include commons-digester:

Yes. http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/ - release repository and http://snapshots.jboss.org/maven2/ - snapshots repository

Thanks, I couldnt find my way around the non-standard layout for richfaces.

To anyone having the same issues as me the following snippets work fine when using jboss repo.

<dependency>
 <groupId>org.richfaces.framework</groupId>
 <artifactId>richfaces-api</artifactId>
 <version>3.2.1.GA</version>
 <scope>runtime</scope>
 </dependency>
 <dependency>
 <groupId>org.richfaces.framework</groupId>
 <artifactId>richfaces-impl</artifactId>
 <version>3.2.1.GA</version>
 <scope>runtime</scope>
 </dependency>
 <dependency>
 <groupId>org.richfaces.ui</groupId>
 <artifactId>richfaces-ui</artifactId>
 <version>3.2.1.GA</version>
 <scope>runtime</scope>
 </dependency>

And commons-digester will be added as a runtime transitive dependency. Hooray!
