Hi, To prevent any problems, I have now split up the build into two builds (api-build and full-jar). I think I will introduce now a third project (with pom packaging) that will build up all modules and collect the artifacts that are needed. I hope that is a correct strategy to solve the problem. I would like to reuse the api.jar and the full.jar as artifacts that can be used as dependencies, therefore I take Jörg's comment into account, thanks!

That's not the real problem. What actually *is* a problem, if you depend on different artifacts that bring both jars as transitive dependencies - you cannot exclude e.g. the -api, because for exclusions you can only specify GA. :-/ - Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org SICK AG - Sitz: Waldkirch i.
