Also some notes on a non-transitive compile scope: for NetBeans module development, module -> module deps are not considered transitive. (This is because a module API-1
might happen to start using some other API-2 for its internal implementation, but this does not mean clients of API-1 should suddenly be exposed to API-2's classes.) The
current Maven plugin deals with this by (1) writing the dependency metadata in the module manifest based on directly declared dependencies only, which is sort of ugly;
(2) verifying _after_ compilation that the module's bytecode in fact only refers to classes among the declared dependencies (in case you accidentally compiled against a
transitive dependency). The situation with OSGi is however more complex, as API-1 is allowed to reexport some of API-2's packages (generally because it refers to those
types in its own API); ideally, Maven's computed classpath would include both directly declared dependencies and anything reexported by them.
