Ability to disallow groups of deps
----------------------------------
Key: MDEP-62
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-62
Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: David Blevins
Assigned To: Brian Fox
There's a related issue MNG-2796 (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2796)
involving some issue with using one pom ("server" parent pom) to depend on
another pom ("container" parent pom). The desired effect is that any children
modules of the container parent pom cannot depend on any children modules of
the server parent pom. Having the server parent pom depend on the container
parent pom is one way to ensure this cannot happen, but maybe considered a hack
-- and I suppose it is when you consider that this only works if you control
the poms of the deps that are "off limits".
Brett has suggested adding explicit support for this so that groups of deps or
individual deps could be marked as disallowed. That feature would definitely
work as an alternate ensuring that nothing in the container group depends on
anything in the server group.
