Hello,
My name is Gabriel Dicu.I am currently working with apache maven and I’d like
to make a suggestion about improving maven dependency structure.In my opinion,
dependencies should be organized better, because is difficult to spot
dependencies for different scopes.I think it is a good approach to group
dependencies by their scopes, thus having parent tags for each scope like:
<dependencies>
<scope value=”runtime”>
<dependency>
<groupId>…</groupId>
<artifactId>…</artifactId>
<version>…</version>
</dependency>
</scope>
<!—this is the default scope-->
<scope>
<dependency>
<groupId>…</groupId>
<artifactId>…</artifactId>
<version>…</version>
</dependency>
</scope>
<scope value=”test”>
<dependency>
<groupId>…</groupId>
<artifactId>…</artifactId>
<version>…</version>
</dependency>
<scope>
</dependencies>
In this way you can organize better the dependencies and spot easily the
different scopes.It also can help identify the runtime/compile/etc..
production dependencies and separate them from testing ones, which can be less
important in many cases.
Thanks for taking the time for reading this, and if this approach can be
feasible,
I can be reached at the following email address dikugabri...@yahoo.com for more
details.
