java advanced image,在Maven中使用Java Advanced Imaging

The JAI setup is quite tedious, involving multiple jars and environment variables. It would aid the project's portability quite a lot if I could add it as a regular Maven dependency.

The POM snippet I'm using is

com.sun.media

jai_imageio

1.1

and the errors are

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.

Missing:

----------

1) com.sun.media:jai_imageio:jar:1.1

2) javax.media:jai_core:jar:1.1.3

I can, of course, download and install those jars. The problem is twofold:

jai_imageio requires two jars;

jai_imageio requires a native library to be installed and two environment variables to be set.

I have not found a way to make this work with Maven.

What I failed to see was that the JAI dependency needed to be satisfied only at runtime, and therefore I made sure the production environment has access to JAI, by configuring it for Tomcat.
