Robert Scholte closed MDEP-550.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Assignee: Robert Scholte
Warnings about these kind of things is not the responsibility of the
maven-dependency-plugin. It should respect the dependency tree as-is and have
no knowledge about any rules.
Another issue is that you will only get this warning is you run this goal,
while most of these goals are not written to be part of the build.
Instead I would suggest to write a parent-pom, add a [JDK activation
profile|http://maven.apache.org/ref/3.3.9/maven-model/maven.html#class_activation]
and add an[Enforcers bannedDependencies
rules|http://maven.apache.org/enforcer/enforcer-rules/bannedDependencies.html]
Besides that, maybe SonarQube it a better tool to warn you about this.
> Warn the user if javax.activation is being listed as used undeclared

> Environment: Apache Maven 3.3.9
> (bb52d8502b132ec0a5a3f4c09453c07478323dc5; 2015-11-10T13:41:47-03:00)
> Maven home: C:\productos\apache-maven-3.3.9\bin\..
> Java version: 1.8.0_51, vendor: Oracle Corporation

> Priority: Minor
>
> {{javax.mail:mail:1.4.7}} has {{javax.activation}} as a dependency, and (if
> not excluded), the analyze goal shows:
> {noformat}
> [WARNING] Used undeclared dependencies found:
> [WARNING] javax.activation:activation:jar:1.1:compile
> {noformat}
> When in fact Java 6+ already includes the javax.activation package, not
> needing the cited dependency.
> The idea is that the analyze goal could show a warning alerting the user
> about this situation.
> TIA,
