Hello Rusty, I don't think the problems you are facing have to do with version 99. Try using the regular commons-logging to get your code to build. You do not need to reference commons-logging directly because it will be pulled in by maven's transitive dependency rules. See below for an explanation. For example, depending on logback-classic version 0.9.9 will transitively pull-in slf4j-api version 1.5.2. Similarly, since spring 2.5.5 depends on commons-logging v1.1.1, declaring spring 2.5.5 will pull-in commons-logging v1.1.1. I beleive that log4j is declared as an optional dependency in spring v2.5.5 so you probably do not need to declare log4j nor log4j-over-slf4j as dependencies. However, I might be wrong on that last item. As for modules in the org.slf4j group, they are a;ways released at the same time. So if you declare a dependency for log4j-over-slf4j version X, make sure that if you declare slf4j-api as dependency, its version number is identical to X. HTH, ps: One last thing, avoid cross posting to multiple lists. :-) Rusty Wright wrote:
Maven newbie here trying to convert my Eclipse project to Maven.
I tried using the "version 99" of Commons Logging as documented here (so that I can use logback and slf4j instead):
http://day-to-day-stuff.blogspot.com/2007/07/no-more-commons-logging.html
which was just recently referenced on the logback mailing list.
My pom.xml file starts out as below. Below that are the errors.
So I don't understand why it's not working. And additionally in the errors part the initial "Downloading:" lines seem odd to me since they have the zapto url prepended to them.
Help!
