A defines a dependency on D with scope test and is a pom project
B defines a dependency on D with compile (default) and is a jar project. A is the parent pom of B. When I run dependency:tree I get what I want for B : D with scope compile. I have other projects (C) whose parent is A and which depend on B with scope compile(default). My problem is that the D dependency for such projects is in scope test (inherited from A) instead of scope compile (retrieved through the dependency on B). In other words Maven chooses the wrong scope for my C projects. In fact, I think it always takes the one from the before parent and ignores the one from the dependency.

Hi! In parent A, so you define scope in dependency or dependency management section. If the latter, then it overrides scope of the transitive dependency. In which scope is dependency B? If it's in test scope, than its dependencies will be in test scope, too. It would be much easier if you could show the POMs. Regards, htfv (Aliaksei Lahachou) Am 17.07.2012 09:15 schrieb "Graham Crosmarie" < [email protected]>:Hello, I have a problem with my dependency pattern and I am not sure that maven behaves correctly in this case. Here is my case : - I am using Maven 2.2.1. - I have a project A which defines a dependency D with scope test. - I have a project B whose parent is A and which defines D as a dependency in scope compile. - My project hierarchy defines a lot of projects whose parent is A and who have B as a dependency. My problem is : all these "subprojects" have D as dependency in scope test (from A). I think that the correct behaviour would be to have D with scope compile (from their dependency on B) because scope compile 'contains' scope test. But Maven 2.2.1 does not work that way :-). Is there any way to force my projects to use the D scope from project B instead of the one from its parent (project A) ?
