Hi all. I have just joined the list, so please forgive me if the exact same question has already been posted. Here is my use case : I have a project CORE_A which exposes a facade in the form of an EJB, which is built in a separate project EJB_A. I have a project CORE_B which exposes a facade in the form of an EJB, which is built in a separate project EJB_B. CORE_A needs to call remote EJB_B, so it has a dependency on the client jar of EJB_B. CORE_B needs to call remote EJB_A, so it has a dependency on the client jar of EJB_A. EJB_A depends on CORE_A for its build. EJB_B depends on CORE_B for its build. In my CORE_A and CORE_B POM files, I have tried to avoid getting a cyclic dependency error in the build phase by : - using a client classifier for the depency of CORE to EJB client - using an exclusion e.g. for the pom.xml of the CORE_A project : <dependency> <groupId>com.acme</groupId> <artifactId>EJB-B</artifactId> <version>${applicationVersion}</version> <classifier>client</classifier> <exclusions> <exclusion> <groupId>com.acme</groupId> <artifactId>CORE-B</artifactId> </exclusion> </exclusions> </dependency> But when I launch the install goal, I immediately get a cyclic dependency error message, which seems to indicate that Maven is ignoring my <classifier> or <exclusion> modifiers, and basing its graph calculation solely on the list of depencies. I use Maven 2.0.7. Has anyone got a solution ? Regards, Fabien Coppens
