We simply created a Maven plugin to getthe classpaths (test,compile, etc.) and construct the command line before launching our external program, treating dependecies the maven way. I don't think I still have the code :o(( because it was so simple we just trashed it when we didn't need it anymore. :o( Emmanuel We had a similar problem.

It cannot even handle variables in versions, which some people like to declare. If you want to expand it to handle transitive dependencies (seems quite important) and parent poms (IMO, less import: just run the script twice), go ahead. I'm curious to see what you can come up with. Maybe ITR idea? @Nanne: I didn't think about using the Manifest, but it also has some complications, for example when having an executable Jar with all dependencies extracted in the executable jar. The Manifest won't contain the dependencies then. @Silvester: Ofcourse, when the sun stop shining, days will last 10 hours longer, etc, etc ;). In other words: those chances are very slim! @Age: this is not the holy Grails ofcourse! It cannot even handle variables in versions, which some people like to declare.

Like Age said we need transitive dependencies! Any change of a plugin version for Maven? Hi Erik, thanks for the snippet. Like Age said we need transitive dependencies!

Just include the depended jars in your fitnesse project jar manifest. What about using the manifest for this? Just include the depended jars in your fitnesse project jar manifest.

When you're simply slurping the xml, you won't get the transitive and inherited dependencies so your fitnesse classpath might still cause problems. I think Maven2 has support for embedding so maybe you could use that part of maven to read the POM. What about transitive dependencies and parent POMs ?
