Hello all,

I am converting from Ant/Ivy to Maven2 and I have a question regarding 
dependencies in Maven2. In Ivy I could define dependencies which would be 
conditionally considered based on my build configuration. for example, I 
could define in a project Foo, a dependency on Bar for all configurations and 
a dependecy on Box for the test configuration of project Foo. Then, another 
project, say Fuzz, could depend on Foo and use either its default 
configuration (which would transitivly bring in Bar but not Box)  or use its 
test configuration (which would transitivly bring in Bar AND Box). How is 
this done in Maven? I read up on profiles and I'm wondering if that's the 
answer, or if there's a more straight foward way of doing the same. Could 
somebody provide an example of a Maven equivalent? Thanx in advance.
