Remove Commons-logging from CLI's pom.xml
-----------------------------------------
Key: CLI-128
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-128
Project: Commons CLI
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.0
Environment: N/A
Reporter: Andy Gerweck
Priority: Minor
A search of the code in commons-cli 1.0 shows that CLI (rightly) doesn't do any
logging, but just raises exceptions when things go wrong. However, the pom.xml
states that commons-logging is a dependency, which isn't true. Instead of
making users manually exclude commons-logging, it should be removed from the
pom.xml.
I hope that future versions will continue to be free from logging, as it's
completely unnecessary for such a simple and elegant library. There's just no
reason that a simple argument parser should ever need to log its status, except
perhaps while fixing a bug--but those statements would be unlikely to be useful
again and are better removed.
