PrimeFaces Barcode Not Working?

I'm trying to run a barcode from PrimeFaces Showcase , but when I put the XHTML code in and let it work in my local Wildfly 8, I just get full of garbage. Each barcode numbers are too big and the QR code doesn't work at all.

I believe I may have a missing Maven dependency, but I am having a hard time finding the right one.

Following the documentation, I think I need to integrate a dependency for barcode4j-light

in version 2.1

, but I cannot find this version on Maven.

How do I integrate this? I would appreciate any help! Thanks in advance!

So, barcode4j-light-2.1

not available in the Maven repository. We need to download it from SourceForge . Download it and unzip it, go to the directory build

. The letter barcode4j-light

will be there.

To install it on your local Maven repository, follow these instructions . Basically, from the command line (from a directory build

and assuming you have Maven installed):

C:\...build>mvn install:install-file -Dfile=barcode4j-light.jar 
                                     -DgroupId=net.sf.barcode4j
                                     -DartifactId=barcode4j-light 
                                     -Dversion=2.1 
                                     -Dpackaging=jar

This command should be on one line, not on a line as you can see here. Then you can just add the dependency to your project



<dependency>
    <groupId>net.sf.barcode4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>barcode4j-light</artifactId>
    <version>2.1</version>
</dependency>

You will also need this

<dependency>
    <groupId>net.glxn</groupId>
    <artifactId>qrgen</artifactId>  <!-- QR code support -->
    <version>1.4</version>
</dependency>

Not step by step like this, but it is described in the Prime Faces User Guide . This worked for me once I followed the steps below.

I also added to my pom.xml:

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <url>http://repository.primefaces.org/</url>
        <id>PrimeFaces-maven-lib</id>
        <layout>default</layout>
        <name>Repository for library PrimeFaces-maven-lib</name>
    </repository>
</repositories>


Who is solving the dependency issue in NB8 Maven web projects.
