Brett Porter updated MNG-702:
-----------------------------
Priority: Critical (was: Major)
> Add ability to exclude all transitive dependencies except those specified as
> inclusions
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-702
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-702
> Project: Maven 2
> Type: Improvement
> Versions: 2.0-alpha-3
> Reporter: Ken Weiner
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.0-beta-1
>
>
> Currently there is an ability to specify an optional <exclusions> element as
> a child of <dependency> within a POM. This has the effect of excluding one
> or more of a dependency's transitive dependencies.
> It is often the case that a dependency itself has many dependencies needed
> for compilation, but are not necessarily needed at runtime.
> This is a request to add an optional <inclusions> element as a child to
> <dependency> within a POM so that it is possible to express the instruction
> "Don't get any of the transitive dependencies except for X, Y, Z, etc." For
> example:
> <dependency>
> <groupId>springframework</groupId>
> <artifactId>spring</artifactId>
> <version>1.2.2</version>
> <scope>compile</scope>
> <inclusions>
> <inclusion>
> <groupId>hibernate</groupId>
> <artifactId>hibernate</artifactId>
> </inclusion>
> </inclusions>
> </dependency>
> Brett Porter pointed out on the maven users mailing list that this approach
> could have some pitfalls, but that I should still submit the issue for
> discussion.
