[jira] Commented: (MNG-3689) Dependency excludes applies to subsequent dependencies

["Paul Taylor (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3689?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=143612#action_143612 ] 

Paul Taylor commented on MNG-3689:
----------------------------------

Having talked this issue through with a colleague : the following may be help to clarrify the issue.

a->b->c
x->b->c

c == servlet-api b = commons-logging, a == spring-ws-core, x == spring-core

Believe this might be an incorrect edge case of MNG-1797 where the scope
of the exclusion is being applied incorrectly.

> Dependency exclusions seem to be in-correctly scoped and so are applying 
> to subsequent dependencies at the same level. This results in dependencies
> being 'removed' when new dependencies are 'added'.
> The issue is apparent in the pom below which use spring-ws-core and spring-core,
> which both use the commons-logging-1.1. Commons-logging 1.1 erroneously 
> includes servlet-api - a fact which spring-ws-core attempts to resolve with exclusions.
> a pom which ''only'' has spring-core as a dependency pulls in servlet-api.
> the addition of spring-ws-core has the effect of 'removing' commons-logging. 
> This behaviour occurs under maven 2.0.8.
> Under maven 2.0.9 it is 'dependency order dependant' - swapping the pair
> of spring-core and spring-ws-core highlights or hides the erroneous behaviour.
