icepdf-core maven install in Eclipse not working

Question

I need to use PDFviewer in Vaadin which has a dependency of IcePdf... so I was trying to install it but it gives me DependencyResolutionException. I tried different versions like 4.1.1, 4.2.2 and others as well but nothing works... Iam not very familiar with maven so dont exactly know how to add it through import as it asked for artifact file which I dnt exactly know :(. here is the dependency tag that I've added in pom.xml.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.icepdf</groupId>
    <artifactId>icepdf-core</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.4</version>
</dependency>

Any idea ???

Answer 1

This thread is a bit old but maybe the answer is still of help to somebody: one way to add a maven dependency for icepdf is to add the ice maven2 repository as well as the dependency to your project's pom, like in the example below. Don't bother that the url of the repository says "anonsvn", they've got a maven repository running there.

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" ... >
  ...
  <repositories>
    <repository>
      <id>ice-maven-release</id>
      <name>Ice Maven Release Repository</name>
      <url>http://anonsvn.icesoft.org/repo/maven2/releases</url>
    </repository>
    ...
  </repositories>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.icepdf</groupId>
      <artifactId>icepdf-core</artifactId>
      <version>4.4.0</version>
    </dependency>
    ...
  </dependencies>
</project>
