UberJar uber-jar

The UberJar for Experience Manager 6.5.3.0 is available in the Maven Central repository.

To use UberJar in a Maven project, see how to use UberJar and include the following dependency in your project POM:

<dependency>
     <groupId>com.adobe.aem</groupId>
     <artifactId>uber-jar</artifactId>
     <version>6.5.3</version>
     <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
NOTE
UberJar and the other related artifacts are available on Maven Central Repository instead of Adobe Public Maven repository (repo.maven.apache.org). The main UberJar file is renamed to uber-jar-<version>.jar. So, there is no classifier, with apis as the value, for the dependency tag.
