To get the Oracle Driver go toand then to the JDBC Drivers page which at the time of writing is here:
Ensure you have Maven properly setup on your machine.
Navigate to the folder containing the jar in a command line prompt.
Enter the following;
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=ojdbc5.jar -DgroupId=com.oracle -DartifactId=ojdbc5 -Dversion=11.2.0.3 -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePom=true
Where:
-Dfile is the path to file
-DgroupId is the group ID
-DartifactId is the artefact ID
-Dversion is the version of the package
-Dpackaging is the package type i.e. jar
- DgeneratePom will automatically generate the pom.xml entry
Note: If you are using Powershell you will need to escape the – with a back tick so -Dfile=ojdbc5.jar becomes `-Dfile=ojdbc5.jar`
If you are adding Sun JARs is there is a helpful article on naming conventions to use here.
