Two options in my head:
1) Eliminate the warning. 2) Allow some means for officially defining scopes -- the problem being that the consumer is the logical place for the definition. 2011/6/27 Arnaud Héritier <[hidden email]>: > I don't have any pointer in mind except this page which doesn't say much > than a stricter validation of POM : > https://cwiki.apache.org/MAVEN/maven-3x-compatibility-notes.html#Maven3.xCompatibilityNotes-StricterPOMValidation > But that right that in maven 2 we just ignored unknown scopes while maven 3 > throws a warning > > Arnaud > > On Mon, Jun 27, 2011 at 7:02 PM, Benson Margulies <[hidden email]>wrote: > >> In looking at the tomcat plugin, I noticed that it depends on using a >> custom scope, and there was commentary complaining that maven 3 >> complains. >> >> Is there a thread or a JIRA about this?

Allowing people to have custom scopes is a thin end of the wedge...
The scopes we have are not sufficient, so I am +1 to expanding them Custom scopes are a recipe for disaster... the whole point of standardization is that everyone knows what they mean. Currently we have: compile - which we have borked to be transitive but shouldn't be runtime - fair enough provided - which is closer to what compile should have been test - not good enough for the multitude of testing phases system - Eeek! don't use import - nobody has a clue what exactly this does Critically missing from my PoV are: provides - needs a better name, but I want to signify that I provide a specific GAV in my pom so that you don't bother trying to pull it in for another dep... eg. log4j-over-slf4 would provides log4j test-compile test-runtime some scope that is like compile & runtime but not the test classpath... Actually the more I think about it what you really want to specify, in a standardized way is the list of classpaths to add to, and whether it is transitive on that classpath... And of course in the non-maven world, classpath does not make sense... but there are equivalents <dependency> <groupId>...</groupId> <artifactId>...</artifactId> <version>...</version> <scopes> <scope> <name>compile</name> <transitive>true</transitive> </scope> <scope> <name>runtime</name> <transitive>false</transitive> </scope> <scope> <name>test</name> <transitive>true</transitive> </scope> </scopes> </dependency> Man that's ugly On 27 June 2011 23:27, Benson Margulies <[hidden email]> wrote: > Two options in my head: > > 1) Eliminate the warning. > 2) Allow some means for officially defining scopes -- the problem > being that the consumer is the logical place for the definition. > > > 2011/6/27 Arnaud Héritier <[hidden email]>: >> I don't have any pointer in mind except this page which doesn't say much >> than a stricter validation of POM : >> https://cwiki.apache.org/MAVEN/maven-3x-compatibility-notes.html#Maven3.xCompatibilityNotes-StricterPOMValidation >> But that right that in maven 2 we just ignored unknown scopes while maven 3 >> throws a warning >> >> Arnaud >> >> On Mon, Jun 27, 2011 at 7:02 PM, Benson Margulies <[hidden email]>wrote: >> >>> In looking at the tomcat plugin, I noticed that it depends on using a >>> custom scope, and there was commentary complaining that maven 3 >>> complains. >>> >>> Is there a thread or a JIRA about this?

Consider the tomcat use case, and then mine.
The tomcat use-case is: declare additional artifacts of type/packaging 'war'. The plugin launches them as additional webapps. My use case: This artifact of code, here, depends on that giant artifact of data, there. In both cases, the dependency *does* need to be copied to the local repo, but does *not* want to be in classpath. So, what would you think of <dependency> <!-- gav --> <scope>non-classpath</scope> <list>tomcat</list> </dependency> That is, define the concept of a named list of dependencies, which seems harmlessly extensible, while defining exactly one more scope, to use for this purpose?

The tomcat wars are NOT provided. The idea is to grab them from the
repositories, copy them to the local repo, and have the tomcat plugin 'collect them all.' I didn't know that maven already had the concept of non-classpath artifact types. I've been laboring under the idea that these things would end up in the classpath if not excluded somehow. Tomcat could stop using the special scope, but then it would need to redundantly list these artifacts in its own config, unless the author were willing to take the attitude that *all* war dependencies should be launched. Using foo:bar syntax instead of a nest of XML that is perhaps not too awful, but it still feels like listing the same thing twice. Hmm: how does the new site plugin avoid this? With the new site plugin, can you built a reporting plugin in the reactor and then use it in a site? I bet not. In short, I'm arguing for some idea of annotating dependencies to avoid redundantly calling them out in plugins, but I'm not arguing terribly loudly.

the wars are really side web apps that are provided by somebody else at
deployment time in the runtime container. just as the server api is provided by somebody else. the tomcat plugin is providing the container, so as it knows those side apps are not present it would make sense to me if it provided them for me. just like when running unit tests, surfer will provide the provided deps on my test classpath. what i am saying is tomato does not need a special scope. symmantically their required scope is provided. - Stephen --- Sent from my Android phone, so random spelling mistakes, random nonsense words and other nonsense are a direct result of using swype to type on the screen On 28 Jun 2011 00:46, "Benson Margulies" <[hidden email]> wrote: > The tomcat wars are NOT provided.

The currently recommended approach to this is to filter the list of dependencies with includes/excludes configuration in the plugin, like the dependency plugin does. This doesn't require duplicating as much information since you can use some short hand. - Brett -- Brett Porter [hidden email] http://brettporter.wordpress.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [hidden email] For additional commands, e-mail: [hidden email] |

Apologies: I hit the wrong button.
I am enjoying this thread. My main observation so far is that if you need one custom scope (and I think you do) then you will need more. "Provided" is not enough. The custom scope seems to let you get at lists of dependencies that have a special purpose. They seem to do this without breaking anything or interfering with the existing classpaths.. There can be more than one special purpose. There is more than just Java.

I was pretty sleepy last night.
My residual disagreement is that 'provided' doesn't just mean 'copy to local repo'. It means 'copy to local repo and put in test classpath.' Yes, I now get it, an appropriate packaging avoids any classpath. The word 'provided' is used because it's 'provided' by the environment by magic at runtime. I end up thinking that one more scope would make this easier to explain. Try writing a paragraph of doc that we'd put in the pom doc to explain 'provided' if we decide to just stick with this. However, I have a really simple idea. What if we permitted *no scope at all* for non-jar artifacts to serve this purpose?

I think that, if this is worth doing, it's worth adding a new element to the POM at the same level as 'dependencies' to declare that the project's artifact also provides a list of additional gavs. > > maven could then break the build for you if you pull in log4j:log4j > and org.slf4j:log4j-over-slf4j just as it does if you try to pull in > two different versions of log4j:log4j > > and it could ensure that a project that depends on > org.slf4j:log4j-over-slf4j never has log4j:log4j in its dependency > tree. > > People will say that OSGi is the real answer here, and that you have > to... blah blah blah... we are in the real world here, OSGi is good > for some things and not for others, Maven needs a solution that is > better than having to add > <excludes><exclude><groupId>log4j</groupId><artifactId>log4j</artifactId></exclude></excludes> > to _all_ the dependencies in your project just because you have added > a dependency on org.slf4j:log4j-over-slf4j > >> >> >>> So that when computing the dependency tree, we could automatically >>> exclude dependencies that are already provided or supplied or embedded >>> in another dependency. >>> >>> The sticking point for me is that it needs a good name different from "provided" >>> >>>>> this easier to explain.
