[jira] [Commented] (MDEP-714) runtime dependencies reported as
unused
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-714?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17318700#comment-17318700 ]
Michael Osipov commented on MDEP-714:
-------------------------------------
I don't see as a bug becuase it is rooted in the nature of the system. An improvement can be done to remove those deps from analysis.
> runtime dependencies reported as unused
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: MDEP-714
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-714
> Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: analyze
> Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold
> Assignee: Michael Osipov
> Priority: Major
>
> Typical output when analyzing the maven-archetype-plugin:
> [WARNING] Unused declared dependencies found:
> [WARNING] org.apache.ivy:ivy:jar:2.5.0:runtime
> However since this is needed at runtime, possibly via reflection, it seems likely that it is used but the dependency analyzer can't figure this out.
> Confirm and consider whether the plugin should simply never report runtime dependencies as unused.
> This is tricky because it's certainly possible that a runtime dependency is unused, but in practice it seems more likely than not to be a false positive.
