is there any way to moving dependencies from pom.xml to application.properties file?

  <dependency>
      <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
      <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
      <version>42.3.3</version>
    </dependency>

somehow move to src/main/resources/application.properties?

  • What you are asking for and saying makes no sense. You need to explain much better what you are trying to do and why. – RoToRa Mar 19 '22 at 11:28

Your mentor is not asking you to move the dependencies to the file application.properties, but to move the dependency versions to the <properties> section of the maven file (pom.xml).

Example:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
  <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
  <version>${postgresql.version}</version>
</dependency>

And then in the <properties> section:

<properties>
  <postgresql.version>42.3.3</postgresql.version>
</properties>
