Tibor Digana commented on MNG-2205:
-----------------------------------
I do not know if the bug is definitely in Maven core or maven-war-plugin 2.2 or
2.4.
The efective-pom correctly resolves the modules DAO(jar) and Services(jar).
For sure I will rollback to Maven 2.2.1 because there the profiles in DAO-BOM
and Services-BOM work as expected.

The development profile has dependencies in DAO(jar):

> A provided scope dependency can also be thought of as "compile-only".
> Project A requires Sybase JConnect on the runtime classpath. Project A
> declares a "provided" dependency on Sybase JConnect.
> Project B depends upon Project A. Project B declares a "compile" dependency
> on Project A.
> Project C depends upon Project B. Project C declares a "compile" dependency
> on Project B.
> {noformat}

> B
> | - compile dependency
> A
> | - provided dependency
> Sybase JConnect
> {noformat}
> So, does Project C transitively depend on Sybase JConnect. Yes, of course!
> The "provided" dependency needs to be transitive.
> Ultimately, when Project C gets deployed, Sybase JConnect needs to be
> somewhere on the runtime classpath in order for the application to function.
> It's valid for Project C to assume that Sybase JConnect is available and use
> JDBC all over the Project C code. Project C is safe to do this because it can
> happily deduce that Sybase JConnect will be there in the runtime environment
> because Project A NEEDS IT.
> I've got Use Cases all over my aggregated build which make it absolutely
> critical and common sense that provided scope dependencies are transitive.
> For the (very rare) odd case where you don't want to inherit provided
> dependencies, you can <exclude/> them.
