I have some excel templates for report generation.
I need to include these templates into the jar that is being created by the maven-jar-plugin
how can i do so?
As Jorn has commented above, place the excel templates that you need to be packaged into the resources folder of you rmaven project, which is by default src/main/resources. maven jar plugin will automatically take them and place them in the jar.

I want to use the import javax.ide in IntelliJ, specifically exploring MetaClass and seeing what it can do. I've downloaded the JAR (198) from https://download.oracle.com/otndocs/jcp/standard_extension_ide-1.0-fr-oth-JSpec/, and I know I'm supposed to somehow add it to dependencies under Project Settings -> Modules -> Dependencies, but I'm not sure what exactly I'm supposed to add from the downloaded folder. The folder containing javax/ide itself is somewhat buried, but I tried adding different levels of directories and none of them worked. The actual folder doesn't even contain java files, it contains a bunch of htmls so I might just be downloading the wrong thing. Thanks for the consideration

It is not a JAR. This is a .zip archive and it does not contain compiled classes in a form of a JAR. It has only source files.
If you are working with a JAR - you need to add such a jar file which contains the needed for your classes into the module's dependencies.
If you do not have the JAR but only have sources - you can create a separate module from these sources and then use it as a module dependency to the module where you want to use these classes.
Downloaded latest extentreport jarfiles zip folder and extracted them. I see only two folder as displayed in the imageClick here and sub-folders contain lots of class file
I want to add the latest jarfiles to my project. Although, I could make use of Maven Project but wanted to do it manually by adding those downloaded jarfiles. Unfortunately, I could not find any jar files. There are java class files, properties file,pom file etc..but no jar files. Am I missing something or there is some way extract jars or add the META-INF folder to the project
While running the project i'm getting this error below. As I understood, its a runtime error since the class files are not available but its available during compiling
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: freemarker/template/TemplateModelException
Please suggest
I would to like to add the dependent jars to the update site plugin project in Eclipse.
I followed
http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_create_an_update_site_%28site.xml%29%3F
but, it does not address the above issue. How to deal with the dependent jars with deploying plugin? Anybody please help with ideas.
Thanks
I'm going to assume you are wanting to add additional Jar files to your plugin. You can do this by simply putting the Jar files into the top level directory of your plugin, and in the Classpath portion of the Runtime tab in the Plugin Manifest Editor you can specify the Jar file. This will automatically add it to the build path as well.
Some people prefer to make an extra plugin that contains nothing but external Jar files; you add the Jar files to this extra plugin the same way and then just use the Dependencies tab in the Plugin Manifest Editor to make your original plugin dependent on the Jar plugin.
I have created a new Intellij project. But I can't use the third party jars in my project. I have the jars in a directory structure as follows:
repository/commons-logging/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar
repository/commons-lang/commons-lang-2.1.jar
etc.
I want to add them just by pointing to the repository directory, but couldn't find any ways to add them.
But when I am using classes or API from that jars, the editor can't resolve the classes.
I have tried from Project Structure but can't configure it.
Go to File-> Project Structure-> Libraries and click green "+" to add the directory folder that has the JARs to CLASSPATH. Everything in that folder will be added to CLASSPATH.
Update:
It's 2018. It's a better idea to use a dependency manager like Maven and externalize your dependencies. Don't add JAR files to your project in a /lib folder anymore.
If, as I just encountered, you happen to have a jar file listed in the Project Structures->Libraries that is not in your classpath, the correct answer can be found by following the link given by #CrazyCoder above: Look here http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/configuring-module-dependencies-and-libraries.html
This says that to add the jar file as a module dependency within the Project Structure dialog:
Open Project Structure
Select Modules, then click on the module for which you want the dependency
Choose the Dependencies tab
Click the '+' at the bottom of the page and choose the appropriate way to connect to the library file. If the jar file is already listed in Libraries, then select 'Library'.
On the Mac version I was getting the error when trying to run JSON-Clojure.json.clj, which is the script to export a database table to JSON. To get it to work I had to download the latest Clojure JAR from http://clojure.org/ and then right-click on PHPStorm app in the Finder and "Show Package Contents". Then go to Contents in there. Then open the lib folder, and see a bunch of .jar files. Copy the clojure-1.8.0.jar file from the unzipped archive I downloaded from clojure.org into the aforementioned lib folder inside the PHPStorm.app/Contents/lib. Restart the app. Now it freaking works.
EDIT: You also have to put the JSR-223 script engine into PHPStorm.app/Contents/lib. It can be built from https://github.com/ato/clojure-jsr223 or downloaded from https://www.dropbox.com/s/jg7s0c41t5ceu7o/clojure-jsr223-1.5.1.jar?dl=0 .
In Maven, is it possible to link additional dependent java src from outside the project folders, so that when we build our main package, maven may include such classes into final jar?
just as we can link any source folder to our project in Eclipse and eclipse treats it as regular project source?
In Maven, is it possible to link additional dependent java src from outside the project folders
Technically, it's possible to add source folders to a build and this is usually done using the build-helper-maven-plugin. However, I would recommend against doing so for directories outside a given module, a maven module should be self contained.
