Hello!
Please, could you explain me how MODULE_GROUP property is used by Studio during compiling and building?
And where can I find more info on using IMPORT directive in custom cimponents?
Thanks!

Hi,
What's the custom component you are using? Could you please give us more description about your job requirement?
Have you already checked the KB article about: TalendHelpCenter:https://help.talend.com/search/all?query=How+to+create+a+custom+component

Hello!
I've been developing custom components, and have found that since version 6.0, file tRESTClient_java.xml (for example) uses this construct: "<IMPORT MODULE_GROUP="cxf-core" REQUIRED="true" />". 
So, I would like to khow how this directive is interpreted by Studio to use it in my components! 😃

Hi! 
Are there any ideas on the subject? 

For example I've discovered the next styles of setting dependencies in components description xml:

Old-style (?)

<IMPORT NAME="dom4j"
MODULE="dom4j-1.6.1.jar"
UrlPath="platform:/plugin/org.talend.libraries.dom4j-jaxen/lib/dom4j-1.6.1.jar"
BundleID="org.apache.servicemix.bundles.dom4j"/>

<IMPORT NAME="cxf-rt-core"
MODULE="cxf-rt-core-2.7.12.jar"
UrlPath="platform:/plugin/org.talend.libraries.esb/lib/cxf-rt-core-2.7.12.jar"
BundleID=""/>

Since 6.0.0:

<IMPORT NAME="hawtdb" 
MODULE="camel-hawtdb-alldep-2.15.4.jar" 
MVN="mvn rg.talend.libraries/camel-hawtdb-alldep-2.15.4/6.0.0" 
UrlPath="platform:/plugin/org.talend.libraries.camel.alldeps/lib/camel-hawtdb-alldep-2.15.4.jar"/>

<IMPORT MODULE="commons-codec" 
MVN="mvn:commons-codec/commons-codec/1.10"/> 

<IMPORT MODULE_GROUP="camel-groovy"/>

What are the difference between them? What style should I use as a component developer? Are there any additional styles?
