Re: [jboss-dev] leverage dependencyManagement from jbossas

Hi Paul,
in order to leverage the AS50 dependencyManagement, I define this parent
<parent>
<groupId>org.jboss.jbossas</groupId>
<artifactId>jboss-as-component-matrix</artifactId>
<version>5.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</parent>
http://fisheye.jboss.com/browse/JBossWS/container/jboss50/branches/jbossw...
However, I would like to use the jbossws parent instead. Is there
another way to pull in the dependency management?
cheers

Yes, but only if you use Maven 2.0.9.
"The 'import' scope is only used on a dependency of type pom in the
<dependencyManagement> section. It indicates that the specified POM
should be replaced with the dependencies in that POM's
<dependencyManagement> section. Since they are replaced, dependencies
with a scope of import do not actually participate in limiting the
transitivity of a dependency. Please note that the use of this scope
will break backwards compatibility with older Maven versions. If you use
this, you should use the maven-enforcer-plugin to require a minimum
maven version of 2.0.9."
