Appendix C. Maven2 POM configurations

As mentioned in Chapter 3, Quick start, JavaConfig requires only a minimal set of dependencies for basic (non-AOP) configuration scenarios.

[Note]Note
Please note that this release is not published at the central Maven repository. Instead it is published on Amazon's S3 service, like all Spring milestones. To use it, add the following repository to your POM: 
<repository>
  <id>spring-milestone</id>
  <name>Spring Milestone Repository</name>
  <url>http://s3.amazonaws.com/maven.springframework.org/milestone</url>
</repository>

C.1. Minimal

This minimal configuration will work for all JavaConfig features that do not involve AOP.

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.javaconfig</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-javaconfig</artifactId>
        <version>1.0.0.m3</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

C.2. AOP

In an effort to keep the number of dependencies required when using JavaConfig to a minimum, AOP-related dependencies are excluded by default. Should you wish to use AOP with JavaConfig, modify your Maven2 POM configuration to include the following:

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.javaconfig</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-javaconfig</artifactId>
        <version>1.0.0.m3</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>asm</groupId>
        <artifactId>asm</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.3</version>
        <optional>true</optional>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>asm</groupId>
        <artifactId>asm-commons</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.3</version>
        <optional>true</optional>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>aspectj</groupId>
        <artifactId>aspectjlib</artifactId>
        <version>1.5.3</version>
        <optional>true</optional>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>aspectj</groupId>
        <artifactId>aspectjrt</artifactId>
        <version>1.5.3</version>
        <optional>true</optional>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>aspectj</groupId>
        <artifactId>aspectjweaver</artifactId>
        <version>1.5.3</version>
        <optional>true</optional>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>
