Maven Pom reader doesn't handle optional dependencies correctly in some
instances
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-926
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-926
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Maven Compatibility
Affects Versions: 2.0-RC1
Reporter: Phil Messenger
Attachments: ivy-maven-pom.patch
The "isOptional" function in org/apache/ivy/plugins/parser/m2/PomReader.java
just checks for the existence of an element with the name "optional". If this
element is found, it returns "true" indicating that the dependency is optional.
The actual value of the element is ignored, so a dependency with
"<optional>false</optional>", is still taken to be an optional dependency.
