How to specify path for local jars in maven

I am using maven2 to build the java project. when I am trying to build using mvn install I am getting the compilation error saying some package xya.abc.aaa doesnot exist. This package is available in my own jar at local disk. This jar(say test.jar) is created by me.

How can I tell to maven to use this local jar for the package its looking for is availabe at my local disk?

You need to install the dependencies to your local repository.

mvn install:install-file
  -Dfile=<path-to-file>
  -DgroupId=<group-id>
  -DartifactId=<artifact-id>
  -Dversion=<version>
  -Dpackaging=<packaging>
  -DgeneratePom=true

Where: <path-to-file>  the path to the file to load
       <group-id>      the group that the file should be registered under
       <artifact-id>   the artifact name for the file
       <version>       the version of the file
       <packaging>     the packaging of the file e.g. jar
