add the ability to exclude dependencies from a plugin -----------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3290 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3290 Project: Maven 2 Issue Type: Improvement Components: Plugins and Lifecycle Affects Versions: 2.0.7 Reporter: nicolas de loof Priority: Minor As plugins declare theyre own dependencies, we sometime need to override the plugin dependencies to use a != version of the supported tool. In some situations, due to groupId beeing relocated, this is not possible : example : the axistool mojo depends on org.apache.axis:axis:1.4. To generate code for a previous version of axis, we cannot override this dependency as older axis versions use groupId "axis". same on the castor mojo : cannot use a newest org.codehaus.castor version as the plugin depends on groupId "castor". -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
