I looked up the issue before hand and seen others with similar problems but none of the solutions worked for me.
I am a complete noob with Maven but I just imported a project from GitHub. Now I am having problems with getting the dependencies to work. When I clean it gives me the following errors.
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.

I believe this is different from the original error which was telling me it could not find it, so I went ahead and downloaded all .jar files and put it in the correct places. Now I have no clue what to do.
The other problem I have is whenever I try to edit or add a class it doesn't act like a regular jar file. I cant do like Main.instance.stacticMethod() when I type Main. it just sits there.
If you need any additional files, please let me know.
Also if anyone knows any good tutorial videos on maven
The point of maven is that you should not have to download the dependencies. Just clone the project. You should see a file pom.xml
in the root directory. Then enter
mvn compile
This should compile the software and download the dependencies in the progress. The dependencies are not stored in the project folder, they are put in ~/.m2/...
using the default config.
Edit: The warnings seem to be a problem caused by the maintainers of the project not understanding maven correctly. They seem to have added jars to the project instead of dependencies.
Next edit: Consider for example the file pom.xml
in the v1_8_R3
module: it links to jars in the base directory:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.bukkit</groupId>
<artifactId>craftbukkit</artifactId>
<version>1.8.4-R0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>${project.basedir}/lib/craftbukkit-1.8.4.jar</systemPath>
<type>jar</type>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>
using system paths is generally discouraged. The correct way would have been for the devs to ship the jar as a separate artifact. See this question and the related answers
