[jira] Commented: (MNG-1991) Can't get transitive dependencies from a war pom when this war is added as a depdency of a project

Stephane Nicoll commented on MNG-1991:
--------------------------------------

Brett, another use case: overlays.

You have a dependency on a war that contains classes you need to compile your project. Adding the war as an overlay of the war project should be enough to resolve its classes (and maybe associated libs)

> I have a project (continuum-core-it) that need to use all transitive dependencies of a war (continuum-webapp). If i add the war as a dependency of the project with packaging war, war dependencies aren't shown by project, maven doesn't try to resolve them and doesn't add them in classpath.
> If if replace packaging from war to pom, all dependencies are resolved and added to classpath.
