[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1607?page=all ] Carlos Sanchez reopened MNG-1607: ---------------------------------
> Provide the ability to globally exclude a dependency > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-1607 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1607 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: New Feature > Components: Plugins and Lifecycle > Versions: 2.0 > Reporter: Barry Kaplan > Assignee: Carlos Sanchez > > > Some dependencies you simply never want downloaded no matter what. For > example, when using jdk 1.5 xml-apis.jar causes headaches. But many projects > require this dependency. > Therefore it would be nice to support a 'never' download setting. Maybe: > <dependencyManagement> > <excludedDependencies> > <dependency> > <groupId>xml-apis</groupId> > <artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId> > </dependency> > </excludedDependencies> > </dependencyManagement> > > (Or is there another way to do this now?) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
