Where can I find the Maven repositories for the latest versions of Jasper Reports? I've tried in the main site but it seems that the repo isn't up to date.

Answer 1

This is the latest version:
<dependency>
<groupId>net.sf.jasperreports</groupId>
<artifactId>jasperreports</artifactId>
<version>5.2.0</version>
</dependency>
There is also a pretty nice plugin to compile jrxml files to jasper automatically. Just put the following in your pom and your jrxml files in src/main/jasperreports
<project>
<properties>
<jasperReport.version>5.2.0</jasperReport.version>
</properties>
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>net.sf.jasperreports</groupId>
<artifactId>jasperreports</artifactId>
<version>${jasperReport.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<build>
...
<plugins>
...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>jasperreports-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>compile-reports</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<dependencies>
<!--note this must be repeated here to pick up correct xml validation -->
<dependency>
<groupId>net.sf.jasperreports</groupId>
<artifactId>jasperreports</artifactId>
<version>${jasperReport.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</project>

Answer 2

You find the artifacts in the following repositories:
http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public-jboss/net/sf/jasperreports/jasperreports/
http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/maven2/net/sf/jasperreports/jasperreports/
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/sf/jasperreports/jasperreports/
Surely other repositories contain those artifacts too.
By the way, if you use the jasper reports
<groupId>net.sf.jasperreports</groupId>
<artifactId>jasperreports</artifactId>
<version>6.2.0</version>
and you are behind a proxy or use in a commercial environment a Maven Enterprise Repository it will give you some troubles, as it defines its own list of repositories, which is almost a no-go. I quote the code of the pom:
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>jasperreports</id>
<url>http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/maven2</url>
</repository>
<repository>
<id>jaspersoft-third-party</id>
<url>http://jaspersoft.artifactoryonline.com/jaspersoft/third-party-ce-artifacts/</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
Your maven client will try to access those repositories directly.
To avoid this matter have a look at this ticket How do you configure maven to ignore repositories specified in POM files?

In Maven central the latest version is 4.0.1:
