Hi
I have also similar kind of problem and needs an effective solution. Problem: Let's say we have one custom module for creating jar file let's the name of the jar file is A.jar and that module is dependent upon let's say 10 third party jars. Now i have one module for creating war file and i need to add A.jar in the lib directory of this war file, but i dont require theses 10 jars on which A.jar is dependent so how can i resist these unwanted jars to pack inside lib directory of the war file. The problem may not be exactly same but yes the scenario is pretty much similar. So could anyone please tell me how to avoid these transitive dependencies to get intrude in the lib directory of the war file.

For instance in the lib folder of the WAR i can see commons-logging-1.0.4(transitive dependency of something which I am not able to figure out even after using -X with maven goal) and commons-logging-1.1(explicit in the pom.xml). And there were some more similar occurrences like that of two versions of spring hibernate etc. Regards, Amit On Jan 9, 2008 3:07 AM, Brewster, Richard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why do you want to exclude the transitive dependencies?
