             Summary: Java 8 Method references are not detected
                 Key: MDEP-471
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-471
             Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: analyze
    Affects Versions: 2.9
         Environment: Mac OSX 
13.3.0 Darwin Kernel Version 13.3.0: Tue Jun  3 21:27:35 PDT 2014;

            Reporter: Ben Hardy


It is possible to get the depedency plugin to fail to recognize methods 
references.

For example, the following function declaration is the only place in its class 
where the Guava "Lists" class is referenced (apart from imports):

    public static <V> SequenceMap<String, Character, V> forStringKeys() {
        return new SequenceMap<>(Lists::charactersOf);
    }

We choose to fail when declared dependencies are thought to be unused, and this 
usage is simply not detected, resulting in the following output and exception:

[WARNING] Unused declared dependencies found:
[WARNING]    com.google.guava:guava:jar:18.0:compile
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Caused by: org.apache.maven.plugin.MojoExecutionException: Dependency problems

Will try to get a test and patch attached to this once I figure out where your 
test case class file resources are coming from.
