Ceki Gulcu commented on MNG-1977:
---------------------------------
Hi Robert,
You are right to observe that the provided scope has the inconvenience of
placing the thus "excluded" artifact on the project's class path within the
IDE, in particular Eclipse. However, as far as I know, the artifact is
effectively excluded during build time by Maven. The provided scope is
unsatisfactory during development time within the IDE, i.e. within Eclipse or
IDEA.

> Key: MNG-1977
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1977
> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: POM
> Reporter: Kees de Kooter
> Fix For: 3.1

> I depend on some libraries, which in turn depend on something
> (which in turn depend on something) that I don't want, because I declare
> some other artifact in my pom.xml.
> A concrete example: I don't want that the artifact "xerces" is imported in
> my project because I declare to depend on "xercesImpl" which ships newer
> libraries but with the same namespaces.
> I guess I would need an "exclude transitive dependency at all", either
> globally or from this and that artifact. I saw the <exclusions> tag, but it
> forces me to be very verbose and have exact control on what is required by a
> dependency.
