Hello Karan,
your first solution (scope provided) should work. Here a link to the manuals (last paragraph):
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/examples/war-manifest-guide.html

 <dependencies>
   <dependency>
     <groupId>org.foo</groupId>
     <artifactId>bar-jar1</artifactId>
     <version>${pom.version}</version>
     <optional>true</optional>
     <!-- goes in manifest classpath, but not included in WEB-INF/lib -->
   </dependency>
   <dependency>
     <groupId>org.foo</groupId>
     <artifactId>bar-jar2</artifactId>
     <version>${pom.version}</version>
     <!-- goes in manifest classpath, AND included in WEB-INF/lib -->
   </dependency>
   <dependency>
     <groupId>org.foo</groupId>
     <artifactId>bar-jar3</artifactId>
     <version>${pom.version}</version>
     <scope>provided</scope>
     <!-- excluded from manifest classpath, and excluded from WEB-INF/lib -->
   </dependency>
   ...
 </dependencies>

Try again with scope provided. Have you done a 'mvn clean' before testing your first solution to get rid of caching effects?
Use 'mvn dependency:tree' to check the dependencies and their writings.

Regards

Using an assembly is fine, but in this case may be unnecessary.

First, you need to identify which dependency is requiring the library you are trying to exclude. You can do this using:
mvn dependency:tree

The output is an ascii-art style tree which shows all the artifacts in your project. Once you identify the artifact that is forcing the dependency you can add a dependency exclusion in the <dependency> for that artifact.

For example:
<dependency>
   <groupId>some-hibernate-dependee.group</groupId>
   <artifactId>some-hibernate-dependee.artifact</artifactId>
   <version>2.5.3</version>
   <scope>compile</scope>
   <exclusions>
      <exclusion>
         <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
         <artifactId>hibernate-annotations</artifactId>
      </exclusion>
   </exclusions>
</dependency>

Hope that helps.

    Hello,

    I have a case that my web-server(jboss) allready have sertian libs
    that dont need to be included (hibernate-annotations) in the war
    archive.

    1. So in the pom.xml i set scope to provided on
    hibernate-annotations, but this does not help., all the libs comes
    in WEB-INF/libs
    2. I tried to use assembly plugins with format war, but then the
    war file contains the orginal-war(with all dependency) and correct
    dependency libs are copied in the root-folder(not the speficied
    folder (WEB-INF/lib))-> so this not help either., (i tried to use )


    The beste way is when i can specify a profile, for eks.,
    jboss-build and then build correct war archive without hibernate
    libs...

    can anybody that have any solutions plz help..

    /correct.jar files (why are the placed here when i say
    application-web-1.0-SNAPSHOT/WEB-INF/lib?)
    application-web-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war <-- with wrong jar files in

    Thanx in advance..
