----------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann
> transitive dependency exclusion fails when classifier specified on a
> subproject and building the root project.
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-4939
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4939
> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Dependencies
> Affects Versions: 2.2.1
> Environment: Window XP, Java 6 u10
> Reporter: Sunil Kumar Dhage
> Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann
> Priority: Blocker
>
> My issue is related to MNG-3555.
> I have a root pom which has multiple child projects and poms.
> For simplicity let us consider project Subproject1,Subproject2.
> Subproject1 has a distribution.xml which will install a classifier based jar
> (Subproject1-1.0-distribution.jar)along with the actual Subproject1-1.0.jar
> The Subproject1-1.0-distribution.jar contains only those classes which are
> used in Subproject2. And its size is something around 10KB and
> the Subproject1-1.0.jar contains all the transitive dependencies and the
> complete functionality and the size is few MB.
> Now I want to have the Subproject1-1.0-distribution.jar as a dependency in
> Subproject2 and I am excluding all the third party jars.
> After going through closing comments of MNG-3555, I could understand that
> I should exclude for the main dependency as well.
> 1.How can we mention that particular exclusion is for main dependency and
> particular exclusion is for classifier based dependency?
> 2. Do I need to create two dependencies one for Subproject1 and other with
> classifier?
> Here my Subproject2 is in need of only Subproject1-1.0-distribution.jar only.
> Why should I create one more dependency and exclude the jars.
> PS: 1. Interesting point is if I am building Subproject2 alone then the
> excluded jars are getting excluded
> But when I build the root, then my Subproject2 will not be able to exclude
> the excluded jars.
> 2. If my Subproject2 has a similar dependency on
> SomeOther-1.0-distribution.jar, which is not a sibling, then either I build
> Subproject or I build root, all the excluded jars are getting excluded.
