Hervé Boutemy commented on MSHARED-567: --------------------------------------- while working on this, I found that when you remove maven-core as optional dependency, you find that plexus-container is used for logging by extension from maven-core, which was optional, it is told optional: but the code does not check if logging is injected or not really, is this code about java tool really used somewhere? and is it used in a non Maven context, ie without plexus container? I really find this feature strange in maven-shared-utils given its requirements > remove dependency on Maven core > ------------------------------- > > Key: MSHARED-567 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-567 > Project: Maven Shared Components > Issue Type: Wish > Components: maven-shared-utils > Affects Versions: maven-shared-utils-3.1.0 > Reporter: Hervé Boutemy > > while creating an API for java tool in MSHARED-304, Maven core's Toolchain > API is used: this makes maven-shared-utils dependant on Maven core. > Since maven-shared-utils is expected to be a fundamental utilities library, > ideally which could replace plexus-utils, depending on Maven core will cause > a chicken and egg issue, since Maven core should be able to use > maven-shared-utils > for example, I'm working on MSHARED-562 and this dependency makes me think > that I cannot let the new code in maven-shared-utils and create a dependency > from Maven core on maven-shared-utils... -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
