Overview

The specification of one more more supported JBoss dependencies in a build does not guarantee that all transitive dependencies of the build are resolved to supported dependencies. This is the reason behind using JBoss-curated BOM (bills of materials). These BOMs insure that Maven will prioritize supported JBoss artifacts for all direct and transitive dependencies in the build.

JBoss EAP BOMs are used like any other BOMs:

Using a BOM

Repository

The BOMs are available in the RedHat General Availability Maven Repository.

EAP 6

EAP 6 BOM Usage Example

Relationship between BOM and EAP Version

The EAP version is specified directly in the BOM declaration. For EAP 6:

<dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.jboss.bom</groupId>
      <artifactId>eap6-supported-artifacts</artifactId>
      <version>6.4.15.GA</version>
      <type>pom</type>
      <scope>import</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>


JBoss BOMs Organizatorium

There is a dependency management BOM included in the JBoss EAP Maven repository, which specifies all the supported JBoss EAP binary artifacts. This BOM can be used in a build to ensure that Maven will prioritize supported JBoss EAP dependencies for all direct and transitive dependencies in the build. In other words, transitive dependencies will be managed to the correct supported dependency version where applicable. The version of this BOM matches the version of the JBoss EAP release.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.jboss.bom</groupId>
  <artifactId>eap-runtime-artifacts</artifactId>
  <version>7.0.0.GA</version>
  <type>pom</type>
  <scope>import</scope>
 </dependency>


eap6-supported-artifacts


The jboss-javaee-7.0 BOM contains the Java EE Specification API JARs used by JBoss EAP.

To use this BOM in a project, add a dependency for the GAV that contains the version of the JSP and Servlet API JARs needed to build and deploy the application.

The following example uses the 1.0.3.Final-redhat-1 version of the jboss-javaee-7.0 BOM.

<dependencyManagement>
 <dependencies>
   <dependency>
     <groupId>org.jboss.spec</groupId>
     <artifactId>jboss-javaee-7.0</artifactId>
     <version>1.0.3.Final-redhat-1</version>
     <type>pom</type>
     <scope>import</scope>
   </dependency>
   ...
 </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
 <dependency>
   <groupId>org.jboss.spec.javax.servlet</groupId>
   <artifactId>jboss-servlet-api_3.1_spec</artifactId>
   <scope>provided</scope>
 </dependency>
  ...
</dependencies>
