Peter Kahn commented on MDEP-406:
---------------------------------
I think it is this as I too have this problem. The skip setting in the
configuration for at least the copy-dependencies mojo doesn't appear to work
properly. I would expect the skip xml below to skip the execution, but it does
not.
h2. Goal
Conditionally execute copy-dependencies for specific modules in my project.
h2. Approach
* Top level pom defines copy-dependency execution using property
*skipIncludeCompileDeps* to control execution
* Top level pom sets *skipIncludeCompileDeps* to true
* Child poms will automatically skip execution unless they override property
definition
h2. Root Pom
{code}
<properties>
<skipIncludeCompileDeps>true</skipIncludeCompileDeps>
</properties>
....
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>ROOT POM: Gather Compile Dependencies For Scan</id>
<phase>validate</phase>
<goals>
<goal>copy-dependencies</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<skip>true</skip>
<includeScope>compile</includeScope>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/compileScopeDependencies</outputDirectory>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
{code}
h2. Module Using common execution to gather deps
{code}
...
<properties>
<skipIncludeCompileDeps>false</skipIncludeCompileDeps>
</properties>{code}
> skip is ignored
