Re: Primary and secondary dependencies
_ant:ant:jar:1.6.5:provided_ would not be packaged in your ear. it's scope is provided, which mean Maven will assume it will be provided by the environment, like web container.

RE: Primary and secondary dependencies
Thanks for the reply Jonathan. Here (below) is an example. Ant 1.6.5 is a transitive dependency of my ejb jar module. As you can see, it's set to "provided" all the way through, yet it ends up in my ear. Based on my (quite possibly wrong) understanding of dependency scope, it shouldn't be.

RE: Primary and secondary dependencies
I find the phrase "they are not transitive" a bit confusing here. Anyway, the way it should work is shown in the table at http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mecha nism.html#Dependency_Scope, which shows that the scope of dependencies contributed by your 'provided' dependency should never be greater than 'provided'. In other words, you shouldn't be getting the transitive deps either... but I have no explanation as to why you might be! Are you sure some other dependency which is tighter than 'provided' isn't bringing them in? Try running mvn dependency:tree on your project and seeing what it tells you.

Re: Primary and secondary dependencies
Based on this definition, which comes from the maven docs, I should NOT get the "primary" dependency in my build, but what about the transitive dependencies? Do you suggest I should not be seeing this behavior when the primary dependency is provided? thanks again. provided provided dependencies are used when you expect the JDK or a container to provide them. For example, if you were developing a web application, you would need the Servlet API available on the compile classpath to compile a servlet, but you wouldn’t want to include the Servlet API in the packaged WAR; the Servlet API JAR is supplied by your application server or servlet container. provided dependencies are available on the compilation classpath (not runtime). They are not transitive, nor are they packaged.

Re: Primary and secondary dependencies
they are _transitive_ dependencies :) but you name them _secondary_ dependencies :) you would want to read this document: http://www.sonatype.com/books/maven-book/reference/pom-relationships-sect-project-dependencies.html On Sat, Jul 25, 2009 at 12:41 AM, monkeyden wrote: > > I have the scope of some 3rd party dependencies set to "provided", but keep > getting all the secondary dependencies in my build.
