[jira] Created: (MNG-5101) Declare artifact is a replacement to
avoid excessive exclusions
Declare artifact is a replacement to avoid excessive exclusions
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-5101
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5101
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Dependencies
Affects Versions: 2.2.1
Reporter: Anthony Whitford
Priority: Minor
For those of us using something like [SLF4J|http://slf4j.org/] and including a [legacy API bridge|http://slf4j.org/legacy.html] like {{jcl-over-slf4j}} as a replacement to {{commons-logging}}, it would be nice to be able to have the {{jcl-over-slf4j}} artifact declare in its POM that it is a logical replacement to {{commons-logging}}, so that one can avoid the excessive {{<exclusions>}} for the numerous artifacts that still reference the legacy api:
{code}
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
{code}
One work-around that one can use is to declare {{commons-logging}} as {{provided}} in a project's pom -- but then it appears in the dependency tree, which is not really nice.
