Maven(2.0): Web apps and transitive dependencies
Greetings, I'm new to Maven and am using Maven 2.0.
I'm trying to build a web application. That application has some
dependencies such as Hibernate3 and Spring. The transitive dependency
feature of Maven is copying in several .jar files which I don't
necessarily need at run time because I'm not using those particular
features of Hibernate3 and Spring. Is there a way to only have Maven
copy over those dependencies that are explicitely defined or do I have
to use the "excludes" feature to exclude those dependent dependencies
which I don't need.

The point here is to alter Hibernate & Spring POMs directly in central Maven
repository, so that everybody gets the benefit of the changes.
The way to do that is to file a JIRA issue in
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV , but this requires a certain knowledge of
the related product to know what is optional and what is not.

Stephen, what does this buy me over creating a "light" version of either
(suggested by Alexandre earlier in this thread).
For now I'm using exclusions which seems the most logical choice of the
options presented so far. But I'm new, and certainly don't know the best
way to proceed, so any advice is appreciated.

The preferred thing is to get the Hibernate and Spring POM's to put in
the <optional>true</optional> flag on their dependencies, so that you
don't have to do anything. Until then, put in exclusions.

What I was saying is that he can put it under a different artifact name. The
only possible drawback with this approach is when a dependency depends of
hibernate, it will include all the jars but anyway you don't know wich one
is used so no problem there.
But if it's not a good practice then I suggest him to follow your advice.
You are the expert after all.

Yann Le Du,
Thanks for your response as well. I'm always interested in learning and
following the best practices approach and as I am a newbie to Maven.
What you say makes good sense and I appreciate your insight. And yes, I
did notice a slew of exclusions in the Hibernate3.0.5 pom.
Thanks.

Re: Maven(2.0): Web apps and transitive dependencies
Posted by Yann Le Du <le...@yahoo.com>.
Even if it would indeed do the trick, IMHO I would not encourage it because you
would have to copy-paste every time the POM is changed in Maven central
repository - and how would you be aware of such changes ? - or you want to use
another Hibernate version.
The "good practice" would be, as you suggested, to use the exclusions feature -
not excludes - to specify the JARs you don't want. If you specified the ones
you do want, then you wouldn't get new dependencies needed in subsequent
Hibernate versions.
It works just fine for me. BTW, you can notice that Hibernate 3.0.5 POM uses
this feature for dom4j :)
Hope this helps,
Yann

Oh and don't forget to change your dependencies in your pom to point on your
new Hibernate version. Hope this help!

In my opinion, what you can do is define somewhere in your internal
repository, a "light" version of hibernate. You just copy the hibernate jar
and pom in another location and then you remove the dependances you don't
want in the pom. This way, you keep the regular version of hibernate but you
can use your light version for any number of projects.
