Hi, I want to import following things on my servlet. Can anyone let me know what is the process to add external dependencies and also what external dependencies are needed?

import org.xhtmlrenderer.pdf.ITextRenderer;
import com.lowagie.text.DocumentException;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont;

Hello @sakethchandra02 

 

Dependencies would be 

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.xhtmlrenderer/flying-saucer-pdf-itext5 -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.xhtmlrenderer</groupId>
<artifactId>flying-saucer-pdf-itext5</artifactId>
<version>9.0.1</version>
</dependency>

 

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.lowagie/itext -->
<dependency>
<groupId>com.lowagie</groupId>
<artifactId>itext</artifactId>
<version>2.1.7</version>
</dependency>

 

To use these dependencies, you can add the bundles in parent's pom.xml and all modules's pom.xml, like described on https://techrevel.blog/2023/09/27/managing-third-party-dependencies-in-aem/. Just refer to following:

    Thanks a lot for the response. My core bundle is now stuck in installed state with the following error

    I have added them as dependencies in core pom as well (As I was getting an error while build). Now the build is successful but core isn't getting active. Can you please let me know if there is anything missing here?

      <version>9.3.1</version>
      </dependency>
