How do I add a Maven dependency in Eclipse?

  1. On the top menu bar, open Window -> Show View -> Other
  2. In the Show View window, open Maven -> Maven Repositories

Show View - Maven Repositories

  1. In the window that appears, right-click on Global Repositories and select Go Into
  2. Right-click on “central (http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2)” and select “Rebuild Index
  • Note that it will take very long to complete the download!!!
  1. Once indexing is complete, Right-click on the project -> Maven -> Add Dependency and start typing the name of the project you want to import (such as “hibernate”).
  • The search results will auto-fill in the “Search Results” box below.
