Jonathan Haber created MSHARED-632:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Expose which dependency classes are used and where
Key: MSHARED-632
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-632
Project: Maven Shared Components
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: maven-dependency-analyzer
Reporter: Jonathan Haber
Priority: Minor
We use the maven-dependency-plugin to analyze dependencies and fail our build
if there are any used undeclared or unused declared dependencies. In the case
of used undeclared dependencies, it is often helpful to know which classes are
being used and where they are being used. We've found a few workarounds to make
this a little easier, but the plugin has access to this information so what we
really want is for the plugin to just print this info along with each used
undeclared dependency. We've made this change in our fork and our developers
are very happy with it, so I'd like to contribute it back
([here|https://gist.github.com/jhaber/d8204829fe61569e0034250df74300fb] is an
example of the output before and after the change).
If you agree this is a useful feature, the first step is to update the
maven-dependency-analyzer to return this information so that the
maven-dependency-plugin can use it.
