Can I add jars to maven 2 build classpath without installing them?

Question

Maven2 is driving me crazy during the experimentation / quick and dirty mock-up phase of development.

I have a pom.xml file that defines the dependenc

The solution for scope='system' approach in Java:

public static void main(String[] args) {
        String filepath = "/Users/Downloads/lib/";
        try (Stream walk = Files.walk(Paths.get(filepath))) {

        List result = walk.filter(Files::isRegularFile)
                .map(x -> x.toString()).collect(Collectors.toList());

                String indentation = "    ";
                for (String s : result) {
                    System.out.println(indentation + indentation + "");
                    System.out.println(indentation + indentation + indentation + ""
                            + s.replace(filepath, "").replace(".jar", "")
                            + "");
                    System.out.println(indentation + indentation + indentation + ""
                            + s.replace(filepath, "").replace(".jar", "")
                            + "");
                    System.out.println(indentation + indentation + indentation + ""
                            + s.replace(filepath, "").replace(".jar", "")
                            + "");
                    System.out.println(indentation + indentation + indentation + "system");
                    System.out.println(indentation + indentation + indentation + "" + s + "");
                    System.out.println(indentation + indentation + "");
                }

    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}
