Paul Benedict updated MNG-3564: ------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: Issues to be reviewed for 3.x) > alternative and higher level configuration option to <exlusions> > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-3564 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3564 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: General > Affects Versions: 2.0.9 > Reporter: manuel aldana > > maven provides scope (test, runtime etc.) to filter certain dependencies. > never the less sometimes it is quite helpful to have a another configuration > option, where you decide what to include transitively or what kind of > dependency-set is relevant to your current project. using <exclusions> > configuration to accomplish this is often very verbose, non-standard and is > difficult to read (it is often not obvious what is meant with all these > exclusions). > > as an example ivy includes such configuration meta-info approach (see > http://ant.apache.org/ivy/m2comparison.html). this feature would be nice > because when building releases one is more flexible. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.6#6162)
