The build dependencies should only be used in the build process (e.g java:compile) The test dependencies should only be used in the test process (e.g test plugin). The runtime dependencies only used in a runtime-like plugin. Clean doesn't come into any of those so should do just what it claims to do - clean out working directories and files. -- Andy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
