OK, take a look at http://fisheye.codehaus.org/changelog/qdox/?cs=555

I have to agree with joseph. An example for provided is the servlet- api: you need it for both compilation and runtime, but it won't be included. In this case it's pretty rare you need the dependency at runtime, so optional is a better choice. (provided suggests some jvm already has the jar)

And the jmock is only required during test, doesn't it? So let's just give it the test-scope.

That will work, but isn't semantically correct; I think
  <scope>compile</scope>
  <optional>true</optional>
would be more correct. But then again, I'm just nitpicking, I don't think it makes any real difference.

I've changed three scopes to 'provided'. It means that they won't cascade to Maven user's deps transitively. It also blurs the distinction between 'test' and 'compile'.

Thoughts?

I think they're used by xdoclet/generama, for instance (which in turn provide abstract testcase for their plugins so they can check generated code against expected code, and ant tasks to generate some code). These dependencies (ant and junit) should probably be marked as optional, then.

Just my 2 unverified cents,

Last time I noticed that the dependencies are missing their scope.

Both junit and jmock should have the test-scope.

It seems there's some lost class in the sourcefolder, which depends on junit, namely com.thoughtworks.qdox.junit.APITestCase there are no references to this class, so I would nominate it for deletion.

And I guess the ant-dependency should be at least 1.5.1 and optional
But wait a minute... isn't com.thoughtworks.qdox.ant.AbstractQdoxTask just as lost? Ok, it has some tests, but that's the only usage I can find.
another nomination?

Robert
