ZK Spring Essentials/Getting Started with ZK Spring/Setting Up ZK Spring using Maven

Purpose

Setup ZK Spring Integration Library using maven configurations

Example

Add ZK Maven repository to your pom.xml file

By default, while resolving project dependencies Maven will only look into Maven central repository [1]. In order to use ZK Maven repository, add the following <repositories> elements into pom.xml under the root <project> element.

 <repositories>
    <repository>
      <id>zk repository</id>
      <url>http://mavensync.zkoss.org/maven2</url>
    </repository>
  </repositories>

Note that ZK Maven repository URL is http://mavensync.zkoss.org/maven2.

Adding ZK Spring library dependencies

You can declare these dependencies in pom.xml file and Maven can resolve them by automatically connecting to ZK Maven repository Below shows how you can declare a dependency for ZK Spring library for your project.

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
	<artifactId>zkspring-core</artifactId>
	<version>3.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
	<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
	<artifactId>zkspring-webflow</artifactId>
	<version>3.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency> 
	<groupId>org.jboss.el</groupId>
	<artifactId>com.springsource.org.jboss.el</artifactId> 
	<version>2.0.0.GA</version> 
</dependency>

Configuration

• You need to declare Spring ContextLoaderListener in the web.xml file to be able to declare and register your Spring beans with Spring framework.

<listener>
        <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>
