John Casey commented on MASSEMBLY-444: -------------------------------------- Are you sure there isn't another dependency bringing in these dependencies? Do you have a test project that displays the error? > Maven Assembly trying to package excluded dependencies > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MASSEMBLY-444 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-444 > Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-4 > Environment: Eclipse, m2eclipse > Reporter: Keith Barlow > > The maven assembly does not seem to be ignoring dependencies that have been > listed in the exclude section of the pom. This seems to be the same as > http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-236 which appears to have been > closed without resolution: > Example: > I have tried versions 2.2-beta-3, and beta-4 and this still appears to be an > issue... is there any idea when this might be addressed? > It looks like there is some confusion above so I thought this might clarify. > When a pom declares a dependency such as log4j which has dependencies that > are not in the maven repository, one can add them to the exclusion listing... > however the maven-assembly-plugin does not seem to be ignoring them as it > should when running a the jar-with-dependencies task and the build fails: > <dependency> > <groupId>log4j</groupId> > <artifactId>log4j</artifactId> > <version>1.2.15</version> > <exclusions> > <exclusion> > <artifactId>jms</artifactId> > <groupId>javax.jms</groupId> > </exclusion> > <exclusion> > <artifactId>jmxtools</artifactId> > <groupId>com.sun.jdmk</groupId> > </exclusion> > <exclusion> > <artifactId>jmxri</artifactId> > <groupId>com.sun.jmx</groupId> > </exclusion> > </exclusions> > </dependency> -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
