The jars excluded from the scan will never have actions, like freemarker, velocity, jdk jars, etc. You can completely disable the scanning of jar files, and the plugin will scan only the specified packages, wouldn't that cover the use case that you described above? > > BTW, I added the flatLayout parameter to the table on plugin page. nice, thanks. musachy -- "Hey you!
