<optional/> tag really doesn't work
-----------------------------------
Key: MNG-1280
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1280
Project: Maven 2
Type: Bug
Versions: 2.0
Environment: windows
Reporter: Alexandre Vivien
Fix For: 2.0.1
Attachments: example.zip
In my war project I put the displaytag-1.0 dependency wih the scope runtime.
When I make my war Maven2 include some others dependencies like
commons-logging, this is normal because these dependencies are declared in the
repository side displaytag-1.0.pom, but Maven2 also include in my war the
dependencies which have the <optional/> in the repository displaytag-1.0.pom
like xwork-1.0.3.
I have included a example to explain what I mean. Just run mvn package, and
look at the war created. Compare the jar included into this war with the
displaytag-1.0.pom, you can find it at this url :
http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/displaytag/displaytag/1.0/displaytag-1.0.pom
So, my question is : Is this normal ? if Yes, I would like a explanation of how
work <optional/> tag.
Or Is this a Bug ?
thanks,
Alexandre Vivien
