[jira] [Commented] (MSHARED-788) Add functionality to collect raw dependencies in Maven 3+

["Robert Scholte (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-788?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17372610#comment-17372610 ] 

Robert Scholte commented on MSHARED-788:
----------------------------------------

Currently things that are filtered out with a DependencySelector cannot be added to the tree, because it simply implements {{boolean selectDependency( Dependency dependency )}} without the option to add information to a verbose tree. Ideally I would be able to see all dependencies as specified in the matching pom and see why things are not part of the tree. For test-scoped dependencies this most likely not an issue, but it would be great if you could see that a dependency was removed by exclusion of an ancestor (and which ancestor).
Same counts for cyclic dependencies, but these are already filtered out by embedded code (that behaves like a DependencySelector), so again no way to add this information to the verbose tree without changes to Maven Artifact Resolver.
With that in mind, we can clean up the expected verbose tree.
