enabling optional dependency

[Radim Kolar <hs...@filez.com>]

Spring framework has optional dependency on CGLIB:

<dependency>
<groupId>cglib</groupId>
<artifactId>cglib-nodep</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>

Is there some knob to switch this optinal dependency on or i have to 
copy this dependency to my pom?

No knob:
"If a user wants to use functionality related to an optional dependency, 
they will have to redeclare that optional dependency in their own project."

In case you want to use the Spring features depending on CGLIB: you have
to copy it and drop the <optional>true</optional>.
