Create a new module(s) which just has the log configuration... then A & B can both depend on this(ese) new module(s)...
C can exclude the module(s) from it's dependencies on A & B 2009/4/26 Olivier Cailloux <olivier.caill...@ulb.ac.be> > Hello list, > > I am new to maven and couldn't find a simple and elegant solution to this > (probably) common problem. > > I have three projects : A and B are independent projects and C depends on A > and B.
