Have I look at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPLUGIN-302
This proposal will allow more scopes and plugins are able to select a set
of dependencies based on the scope.
It looks like your problem could be solved with this implementation.
thanks,
Robert

Hi,
I am working on a new Maven plugin for building Apache Flex projects.
While the Flexmojos plugin I am also maintaining seems to still be
working but requiring more and more hacks, I would like to drop that and
make things cleaner in a new plugin.
The dependency scopes defined in Maven per default are tightly linked to
Javas scopes. Unfortunately other languages tend to have more scopes.
Flex for example compiles in code that is directly referenced to the
output and had so-called "rsl" scope which results in something more
similar to jars or DLLs. The opposite -"include" - results in something
like static linking, including all (not only the referenced code parts).
Maven accepts scopes like this but outputs a warning in the beginning. I
can live with that. In older versions of Maven if think unknown scopes
were handled as "compile" scope, but this was fixed and in more recent
versions I think all scopes of transitive dependencies that are not
built in to maven automatically resolve to runtime or provided (Don't
quite remember).
I know I could get rid of the warnings by providing a custom
ModelValidator, but I guess the resolutions of dependencies would still
not work correctly.
Is there an extension point where I could provide a
".mvn/extensions.xml" entry to tell Maven how to resolve the other
scopes? I think I stumbled over the component implementing the
transitive resolutions one or two years ago, but I seem to be unable to
find that again. I was planning on extending that component to work only
on flex-type projects and to default back to the default if it's not a
flex project.
Any other ideas, pointers, suggestions?
Chris
