How to solve incorrect dependencys using maven and openapi

Time:05-18

in our springboot project we are using openapi to generate the representation of our data. But if i try to build the project it looks the generated classes/Interfaces are missing all dependencys. I get a lot of errors saying something like java: package io.swagger.annotations does not exist or java: package springfox.documentation.annotations does not exist.

However the dependencys should be there. The project has 2 pom.xml files. One in the main directory of the project and one in the src directory of the generated data. The pom in the src directory contains

 <build>
        <sourceDirectory>src/main/java</sourceDirectory>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
                <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>repackage</goal>
                        </goals>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

        </dependency>

            <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

Here all the needed dependencys like swagger are listed. Thats why I do not understand how there are all these errors saying the packages can not be found. I have no idea why this happens so i would be really grateful if someone could help me.

Try switching to version 2.92 on both dependencies

        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.springfox</groupId>
            <artifactId>springfox-swagger2</artifactId>
            <version>2.9.2</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.springfox</groupId>
            <artifactId>springfox-swagger-ui</artifactId>
            <version>2.9.2</version>
        </dependency>

With the versions changed if you use SpringToolSuite4, forcing the Update Maven Project should work: Project > Update Maven Project > Force Update of Snapshots/Releases
