Banned dependencies should support regular expressions
------------------------------------------------------
Key: MENFORCER-83
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MENFORCER-83
Project: Maven 2.x Enforcer Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Standard Rules
Affects Versions: 1.0-beta-1
Reporter: Eric Lewis
The includes and excludes of the bannedDependencies rule support wildcards, but
only for an entire section.
They should be enhanced to support regular expressions.
For instance instead of having
<includes>
<include>my.company:abc-api</include>
<include>my.company:def-api</include>
<include>my.company:ghi-api</include>
<include>my.company:jkl-api</include>
</includes>
one would specify
<includes>
<include>my.company:.*\-api</include>
</includes>
To be compatible, the wildcard '*' would be treated as regular expression '.*'
