How to include JAR to Liferay portlet in Eclipse

How to import jsoup.jar to Liferay portlet, through Eclipse IDE?

Solution

  • liferay has ivy settings. you could just locate the ivy.xml file in your liferay-plugin-sdk-6.2 folder (this normally reflects in eclipse as a project folder with your version). add this line <dependency org="org.jsoup" name="jsoup" rev="1.8.1"/> and then build "all". You'll see it download the dependency. When done, navigate to liferay-plugins-sdk-6.2/.ivy folder, look up the downloaded jar and copy it to your project's lib folder i.e /lib. Go to project properties, then Java Build Path. In the libraries tab, click Add JARs and navigate to /lib and add it.
