It will install the jar in your local maven repository and create a POM for it, so your projects can depend on them and won't try to download them from a public repository.. For each jar you want to depend on in maven projects, execute this snippet: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=<your_group_name> -DartifactId=<*your_artifact_name*> -Dversion=<SNAPSHOT> -Dfile=<*path_to_your_far*> -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePom=true Regards, Jo
