----------------------------------------

Hi, the recommended Maven approach to excluding transitive dependencies is to use exclusion filters.

For your example:

  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>bla</groupId>
      <artifactId>service-ejb</artifactId>
      <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
      <type>ejb-client</type>
      <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
          <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
          <artifactId>spring</artifactId> 
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
          <groupId>com.ibatis</groupId>
          <artifactId>ibatis2-sqlmap</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
      </exclusions>
    </dependency> 
  </dependencies>

( see http://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Exclusions for more examples )

If this doesn't solve the problem, could you try removing <type>ejb-client</type> from the 'service-ejb' dependency, to see if that is stopping it from appearing on the project artifact list. Finally, could you send the output from running 'mvn -X package' from the affected project directory - thanks.

> I have a ejb client jar that is a dependency for a eclipse plugin. Unfortunately it brings dependencies to spring and Ibatis, that are used by the ejbs. But they are not needed for the client and I don't want to have them in my eclipse plugin, that should only hold the ejb client jar. When I exclude those dependencies, the whole ejb client jar is ignored.
