ejb-client: Transitive EJB Dependencies should be of type ejb-client
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MEJB-49
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEJB-49
Project: Maven 2.x EJB Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.2.1
Reporter: Roland Schneider
Attachments: ejb-testcase.zip
When setting a dependency to an ejb-client jar that has dependencies to other
ejb projects, these transitive dependencies are resolved as type ejb. It would
be better when those transient dependencies would be referenced as ejb-client
as well.
I have not found any solution to this problem other than to manually exclude
every single transient "ejb" dependency and instead add the ejb-client version
of it directly. However this is cumbersome and error-prone for really complex
projects.
I have included a test-project-setup (no junit test) that demonstrates the
described behavior. When you execute dependency:tree in the client project, you
can see that the testcase-ejb1 dependency is of type "ejb".
