AS7.1.1 Brontes - Can't resolve javax.mail

[marklacas]

Hello,

I'm building a mail app and Eclipse is throwing an error on the lines:

import javax.mail.Message;

import javax.mail.MessagingException;

import javax.mail.Session;

import javax.mail.Transport;

import javax.mail.internet.AddressException;

import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;

import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

It's saying that it can't resove and import the javax.mail lines.

Anyone know how to resolve this?

Thanks,

This doesn't have anything with the AS to do but eclipse needs the javamail api on the classpath.

Unfortunately it is also a problem with AS7 as maven also shows the same errors.  Eclipse is properly showing the problem that actually exists.

What do you have in your pom.xml?

I generally just throw in

		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.jboss.spec</groupId>
			<artifactId>jboss-javaee-6.0</artifactId>
			<version>3.0.2.Final</version>
			<type>pom</type>
			<scope>provided</scope>
		</dependency>

for anything going into the AS, I think the mail api should be in there, too.

That was it.  I had to add:

  <dependency>

    <groupId>javax.mail</groupId>

    <artifactId>mail</artifactId>

    <version>1.4</version>

    <scope>provided</scope>

  </dependency>

into the pom.xml file.

One would have thought that since mail is built-in and operational, the dependencies would have been taken care of already.

Seems I have more to learn.

Thanks,
