Create Reference Modules

Unzip the Maven repository into ~/projects/eap7/beta/jboss-eap-7.0.0.Beta1-maven-repository.

Create an empty IntelliJ project rooted in the Maven repository directory /Users/ovidiu/projects/eap7/beta/jboss-eap-7.0.0.Beta1-maven-repository/maven-repository.

Project format: .idea (directory based).

Add a module. New -> Module -> Java

Name: EAP 7.0 Beta Undertow

Content root: /Users/ovidiu/projects/eap7/beta/jboss-eap-7.0.0.Beta1-maven-repository/maven-repository/modules/EAP 7.0 Beta Undertow

Use the same value for module file location.

Open Module Settings -> Dependencies -> Library -> Java -> ... io/undertow/undertow-core/1.3.7-Final-redhat-1/*.jar

Level: Module Library

+ -> the source JAR.

Scope: Provided.

Add More Content to a Reference Module

Open the reference IntelliJ project -> navigate to the module in question -> Dependencies -> + -> Library -> Java

then follow the same procedure as for Create Reference Modules.

It is important to follow the same procedure and be careful to settings (such as Level, etc), otherwise you could end up with broken modules.

You can add new libraries to a Module that is currently open in a different project, but in order to see the changes, you will need to close and re-open the dependent project.

Import a Module in Your Project

File -> Project Structure -> Modules -> + -> Import Module.
