Adding a new repository in the maven pom.xml

At times, the repository used in the pom.xml may not have the latest version of jar you are looking for. In such case, you will need to add a repository which has the required version of the particulaar dependency. You can do it in the following way:

Add the following lines between the <repositories> </repositories> tags:
<repository>
<id>org.spring.maven.snapshot</id>
<name>Spring Maven Snapshot Repository</name>
<url>http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/</url>
<releases><enabled>false</enabled></releases>
<snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>
</repository>

Change the url and id according to your requirement. The id can be anything but should be a unique one.
