Unable to create Spring AOP archetype using Maven in Eclipse

[pramod talekar]

Hello,

I have m2eclipse plugin installed in Eclipse 3.7.

I want to create a spring project with dependencies like aop, context etc. of version 3.0.2 using Maven 3.

So which default archetype should I use ? e.g. the one with artifact ID org.springframework.osgi

I tried to create an archetype with GroupID org.springframework, Artifact Id : spring-aop, Version 3.0.2.RELEASE, but got error saying that the defined artifact is not an archetype for both spring-aop & spring-context.

Please advise.

create a maven project for the jar and in pom.xml add decencies for spring3.0. If you want to create web application then WAR archetype is also present.

Hi Atul,

I'm not sure about WAR archetype.
Is it fine if I use org.springframework.osgi ?
Also what is the reason behind not able to create a new archetype ?

[Atul Kotwale]

I have created several project using war archetype that is why i suggested you. I do not know exact reason why you do not create it ?

You mean to say the one with the Artifact Id ' spring-mvc-webapp' ?
