Maven
Bill of Materials
You can add the following to your pom's dependency management section to specify the versions of the artifacts for this release. Note that this mechanism does not specify maven plugin versions.
Platform Maven Plugin
The Maven BOM mechanism doesn't cover plugin versions. Consequently, the platform provides a platform plugin that incorporates the plugin goals of other plugins in the product suite. This allows specification of the BOM version as a property that can also be used to configure the plugin version.
Repository Configuration
Components of the platform requiring an X Platform license are stored in our licensed repositories. You can specify the repository credentials provided to you by our license server by editing your ~/.m2/settings.xml
