Robert Scholte commented on MNG-5600:
-------------------------------------
It looks like the provided patch is incorrect (which might be why we didn't
included it in any Maven release yet).
Based on the integration-test it seems to exclude direct dependencies (as if
you would exclude one of the managed spring modules as described in the
description).
I can't predict the impact, so we might need to delay this for a future pom
version.
> Dependency management import should support exclusions.

> suppose i have a multi-module project that uses spring, and so have this in

> <dependency>
> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
> <artifactId>spring-framework-bom</artifactId>
> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
> <type>pom</type>
> <scope>import</scope>

> spring artifacts (or at least a lot of them) have a dependency on
> commons-logging. right now, if i want to exclude commons-logging i have to
> add an exclusion to every spring dependency in every module of my project,
> which is actually more XML overall than giving up on using the bom dependency
> altogether and listing all spring dependencies with excludes once in the
> parent dependency management.
> I'd like to be able to do this:
> {code:xml}
> <dependency>
> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
> <artifactId>spring-framework-bom</artifactId>
> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
> <type>pom</type>
> <scope>import</scope>
> <exclusions>
> <exclusion>
> <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
> <groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
> </exclusion>
> </exclusions>
> </dependency>
> {code}
