[jira] (MNG-5145) Optional compile dependencies being resolved by test dependencies

     [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5145?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Robert Scholte updated MNG-5145:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
Optional compile-time dependencies are being resolved (in WAR projects, at least) into the packaged artifact.

There has been a regression since Maven 2.2.1 in regards to resolving optional dependencies.

In the attached pom (which builds a WAR), there are two dependencies:
* org.springframework:spring-core:2.5.6 - at compile scope
* org.dbunit:dbunit:2.3.0 - at test scope.


The dependency tree looks like this:

{noformat}
net.twasink:webapp:war:1.0
+- org.springframework:spring-core:jar:2.5.6:compile
|  \- commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.1.1:compile
\- org.dbunit:dbunit:jar:2.3.0:test
   +- junit:junit:jar:3.8.2:test
   +- junit-addons:junit-addons:jar:1.4:test
   |  +- xerces:xercesImpl:jar:2.6.2:test
   |  \- xerces:xmlParserAPIs:jar:2.6.2:test
   +- org.apache.poi:poi:jar:3.1-FINAL:test
   |  \- log4j:log4j:jar:1.2.13:test
   +- commons-collections:commons-collections:jar:3.1:test
   +- commons-lang:commons-lang:jar:2.1:test
   +- org.slf4j:slf4j-api:jar:1.4.3:test
   \- org.slf4j:slf4j-nop:jar:1.4.3:test
{noformat}

Note that {{log4j:log4j:1.2.13}} is a {{test}} dependency. However, when you do {{'mvn package'}}, and inspect the resulting WAR file, it includes {{log4j}}!

The problem appears to be that {{commons-logging}} (a compile dependency brought in by {{spring-core}}) declares {{log4j}} as an _optional_ {{compile}} dependency. This is clashing with the test dependency brought in transitively by {{dbunit}}.

To make it worse, this is still brought in if you add an explicit exclusion of {{log4j}} to {{spring-core}}.

Maven 2.2.1 did not bring in the {{log4j}} JAR - this is a regression under Maven 3.0.3
