Maven coordinates can be more sophisticated than we want to document here (alternate packaging/classifiers).
Specifically, I needed to link to
json-lib-2.4-jdk15.jar
at https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/sf/json-lib/json-lib/2.4/json-lib-2.4-jdk15.jar. In Maven, you'd refer to that like this:It turns out that this works great in Bazel, too, if you use Maven coordinates.
But it took me some effort to find it. Adding this link would have helped me, and will probably help somebody else, too.
