We are building an Eclipse RCP plugin that is based on an Eclipse target platform (also developed internally in our company, by a different department). We would like to compile the plugin using MAVEN2 (we also use NEXUS for repository management).
The target platform consists of about 130 JARs (most of them org.eclipse.*). One way to perform the build would be to add 130 references into the tag of the POM file. Not only is this a lot of effort, but the target platform occasionally changes, so a new target platform would mean a lot of modifications.
Is there a better way to deal with a lot of dependencies in MAVEN?
