Maven Dependency Management is a fundamental aspect of the Apache Maven build tool. It allows you to define, manage, and resolve dependencies for your Java-based projects. Maven handles dependencies by: Dependency Definitions: In your project's pom.xml (Project Object Model) file, you define the dependencies your project requires. These dependencies can be external libraries, other in-house projects, or modules within a multi-module project. <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>group-id</groupId> <artifactId>artifact-id</artifactId> <version>version</version> </dependency> <!-- Other dependencies --> </dependencies> groupId: The group or organization that created the dependency. artifactId: The name of the dependency. version: The version of the dependency you want to use. Dependency Resolution: When you build your project using Maven, it automatically resolves these dependencies f
In Maven, you can create and build artifacts using the package phase of the build lifecycle. The package phase is responsible for taking the compiled code and other project resources and packaging them into a distributable format, such as a JAR (Java Archive), WAR (Web Application Archive), or other custom formats. Here are the steps to create and build artifacts using Maven: Configure the Build Output: In your project's pom.xml file, you need to configure the output of the build. This includes specifying the type of artifact you want to create (e.g., JAR, WAR) and any additional resources to include. You do this in the <build> section of your pom.xml: <build> <finalName>my-artifact</finalName> <!-- Name of the artifact without the extension --> <plugins> <!-- Plugin configurations for creating the artifact --> <!-- For example, maven-jar-plugin or maven-war-plugin --> </plugins> </build> Depend
