[jira] Commented: (WAGON-15) remove ioutils/fileutils - use plexus-utils
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/WAGON-15?page=comments#action_30749 ]
Michal Maczka commented on WAGON-15:
------------------------------------
I don't know if you are aware of the fact that when wagon was started the following decisions were made:
a) not to use anything plexus related in the code
b) wagon api should have no dependency on anything else
c) wagon providers should have minimal set of dependencies (we should only use jars which are absolutely required)
This was purely political decision as Jason wanted to
"kill" some arguments for not reusing wagon in applications, which wanted to use "standard" repository access mechanism.
This decision had severe impact on the shape of the api and implementation of the wagons and imo it was the good decision.

But I think it becomes test only dependency of wagon providers.
we heavily use plexus for testing wagons but it is not needed to use wagon.

it just seems simpler to me to copy one class between projects then do
such tricks, specially that jarjar has ugly gpl license.

Michal,
Being that I was part of that decision too, I'm aware of it. However,
you -are- using plexus utils in the code already. It was hidden behind a
transitive dependency on the wagon test module, but still used.
This copy is not in sync with plexus-utils. I'll remove them, use p-u
and before the next release use jarjar to remove the actual dependency.
