Restricting versions of transitive dependencies
Hello, list!
I have a project A that has a dependency on library B. Library B has a
dependency on library C with a version range like [2.1,3.0). I want to
pin library C to a specific version in my project A. But I also want
to declare, in the POM, that library C is not a *direct* dependency of
my project A. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
-Stuart

Why?
What problem are you actually trying to solve?
It sounds like you know the right way to do it already but don't want to.

Add C to A's dependencyManagement section with the version you desire.
