Benjamin Bentmann commented on MDEP-122:
----------------------------------------

As stated in [Clarifications and Amendments to the JLS, Class 
Initialization|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/clarify.html], a Java 
compiler must replace any references to a compile-time constant with a copy of 
its value. Hence, an analysis of the mere bytecode as done by the plugin via 
ASM cannot detect such dependencies.

> Analyze target does not work correctly when only using a constant defined in 
> a different module

> I have 2 projects as seen in the attached files.
> My first project contains a single interface that defines a String constant.
> My second project, uses the String constant from my first project.
> When i try to use dependency:analyze to fail the build as seen below, i can't
