-------------------------------------
{{compile}}? You probably mean {{provided}}. This won't end up in the output.
> New scope for non-functional dependencies
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-6080
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6080
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Dependencies
> Affects Versions: 3.3.9
> Reporter: Paul Benedict
> Assignee: Paul Benedict
> Priority: Critical
>
> Maven currently lacks a scope for artifacts that should not be part of the
> classpath. The classpath is the path that the Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
> searches for classes and other resource files. Given that the classpath is
> Java specific, this feature request can be generalized to accommodate
> artifacts that are not code related (directly or indirectly). It is neither
> code that executes (like a .class file = "directly") nor a resource file
> intimately linked to executable code (like a .properties file = "indirectly").
> For example, an organization may with to establish a Maven project that
> contains common look-and-feel elements to brand all their web applications.
> This project could be a ZIP archive to be included in downstream projects, in
> which each build explodes the archive into their respective web application
> context roots.
> Two names in the running for the new scope are {{"asset"}} and {{"reactor"}}.
> They are nearly equal but have a different slight emphasis. The {{"asset"}}
> name emphasizes purpose of artifact. The {{"reactor"}} name emphasizes
> purpose within the build. The Maven Team should decide among these two or
> propose a third.
