any way to exclude many or all transitive dependencies with ?

[nicolas de loof <ni...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Spring 2.1-m2 changed spring packaging and I had to revisit my POM. I get
lot's of dependencies conflicts as many other dependencies introduce old
spring modules as transitive dependencies.

I'll have to set a huge number of <exclude> to make it work. Is there any
way to use exclude with some patterns, like :
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>*</artifactId> ?

I've tried to provide only groupId (no artifactId) but this doesn't work as
I expected.

Nico.

It's a feature for Maven 2.1. The single exclude to prune a whole  
section of the graph.
