Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MNG-6120: -------------------------------------------- I think setting the default to runtime would be a non starter for most projects. > Allow changing of default scope and change the default scope > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-6120 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6120 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Wish > Reporter: Caleb Cushing > Priority: Major > > Recently I've realized that a lot of what jigsaw will provide regarding > transient dependencies can be resolved in maven if you use > <dependencyManagement> and set the default scope for each dep to runtime, and > then override that where you actually want compile time dependencies. I think > it would be nice if you could easily set the default scope for all modules > (meaning those that don't specify scope) to runtime (or compile, or > whatever), and then set the default to runtime in the next major maven > version (4?). > Even if I only got the ability to set that default scope that'd be great. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
