[shrinkwrap-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (SHRINKRES-27) Allow for full dependency info from MavenDependencyResolver::resolve

[Andrew Rubinger (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKRES-27?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12690201#comment-12690201 ] 

Andrew Rubinger commented on SHRINKRES-27:
------------------------------------------

I'll have a look to see what's provided by Aether's "Artifact#getProperties" in terms of getting this *after* resolution.  Far as I know, this information is part of the dependency declaration to determine transitivity levels, and might not be available as a resolution result.

Also, "provided" doesn't mean "optional".  "optional" means that some of the runtime will work without this dependency, but the user may declare the dependency if he/she wants all features.  "provided" means that the dependency is not transitive (and is expected to be *provided* by some other framework or runtime, ie. "JBossAS provides Hibernate so JPA applications wouldn't export the dependency explicitly").
