通过前面几部分知识，我们对maven已经有了初步的印象，就像Make的Makefile、Ant的build.xml一样，Maven项目的核心是pom.xml。POM(Project Object Model，项目对象模型)定义了项目的基本信息，用于描述项目如何构建，声明依赖，等等。我们来看看maven中pom.xml文件主要标签的意思及其用法，来看一下pom.xml文件的结构：
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

我们可以看到maven的pom.xml文件结构非常清晰，把项目创建好后，我们基本上是在dependencies元素下添加一些子元素及plugins元素下添加一些插件，下面我们来介绍一下各个元素的含义。
1) project是所有pom.xml的根元素，并且在里面定义了命名空间和xsd元素。
2) modelVersion 当前pom模型的版本。
3) groupId定义当前maven项目隶属的实际项目，并会根据这给项目建立包结构。
4) artifactId定义项目中的某个模块名称，如果只有一个模块那就是项目的名称。
5) version 定义maven项目当前所处的版本号,默认0.0.1-SNAPSHOT为快照版本。
6) packaging定义maven项目的打包方式，可以是jar包、war包、pom。
7) dependencies元素底下就是加入依赖包的地方，那么我们从哪里查询依赖包呢，可以查询的地方比较多，我给出一个大家用得比较多的仓库：http://mvnrepository.com。
8) 每个dependency都是一个依赖包，依赖包也就是在dependency里面定义各个依赖包的坐标，这样maven就会从网上下载依赖包到你本地仓库中，有所不同的是dependency元素包含了一个子元素，这个就是对maven生命周期的一个说明，当然除了上面四个子元素外，还包含几个其他的元素。
(1)type说明依赖的类型
(2)optional标记依赖是否可选
(3)exclusions 用来排斥传递依赖
我们具体来看看这个结构：
<dependency>
<groupId>实际项目</groupId>
<artifactId>模块</artifactId>
<version>版本</version>
<type>依赖类型</type>
<scope>依赖范围</scope>
<optional>依赖是否可选</optional>
<!—主要用于排除传递性依赖-->
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>…</groupId>
<artifactId>…</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
Maven是通过groupId、artifactId、version这三类似于坐标的元素来确定唯一性的，因此这三个元素对于每个依赖大多是必须的，后面会详细介绍依赖、聚合、继承等知识点。
没有任何实际的Java代码，我们能够定义一个Maven项目的POM，这体现了Maven的一大优点，它能让项目对象模型最大程度地与实际代码相独立，我们可以称之为解耦。这在很大程度上避免了Java代码和POM代码的相互影响。只要我们定义的POM稳定后，日常的Java代码开发工作中基本不会涉及到POM的修改。
