I want to download the .jar file of a java framework.
That .jar should of course contain all the .class files that I need for my project.
I tried downloading from here:
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.camel/camel-core/3.18.2
But the .jar file is only 4KB big and contains only meta information, but no java classes.
I found jar files with java classes in them in older versions, but in newer versions they seem to upload only meta information.
So I don't know how to get to the .jar file with all .class files inside.
I don't want to work with maven or gradle for now.
And you can't just download jars with maven or gradle you have to build your entire project with it.
I also searched the github (https://github.com/apache/camel) and source code of the "Apache Camel" project and did not encounter jar files.
Is there any other popular place where open source java frameworks/libraries with jar files can be found?
CodePudding user response：
The apache camel module doesn't contain any code. It just declares a list of dependencies, in the /META-INF/maven/org.apache.camel/camel-core/pom.xml file:
- camel-core-engine
- camel-core-languages
- camel-bean
- camel-browse
- camel-cluster
- camel-controlbus
- camel-dataformat
- camel-dataset
- camel-direct
- camel-directvm
- camel-file
- camel-health
- camel-language
- camel-log
- camel-mock
- camel-ref
- camel-rest
- camel-saga
- camel-scheduler
- camel-seda
- camel-stub
- camel-timer
- camel-validator
- camel-vm
- camel-xpath
- camel-xslt
- camel-xml-jaxb
- camel-xml-jaxp
- slf4j-api
You have to download the jars that you need in this list of dependencies. All jars can be found on https://mvnrepository.com/.
This is why everyone will recommend you to use maven or gradle, as those tools will manage the dependencies for you.
