----------------------------------

             Summary: dependency:analyze should list the classes that cause a 
used undeclared dependency
                 Key: MDEP-779
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-779
             Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: analyze-dep-mgt
            Reporter: Joseph Walton


When {{dependency:analyze}} shows that a module has used classes from an 
undeclared dependency, it may not be clear which classes are involved. In 
particular, on large projects where modules and packages don't have a clear 1:1 
relationship.

It would be useful if there was (opt-in?) display of the classes involved. This 
could make it significantly quicker to identify the specific issue without 
switching to another tool.

 For example:

{noformat}
[WARNING] Used undeclared dependencies found:
[WARNING]    xml-apis:xml-apis:jar:1.0.b2:compile
{WARNING]        class org.apache.xmlcommons.Version
{noformat}
