I think your only option for now is to list all artifacts you don't want in the 'exclude' section of the your pom. Xml (under SWF dependency). It is painful, I agree.
You can use maven to list full resolved dependency tree, or generate effective pom and grab artifact names and versions from there.
These SWF artifacts have a couple of dependencies to Flex SWC libraries, but the compiled artifacts have everything they need compiled in. I don't see a reason that a SWF applikation should announce it's dependencies as these are compiled into the SWF files. So is there a possibility to get rid of the SWFs dependencies, while installing the SWF into the repository?
I already tried to set the dependency to myFlexApp. Swf in myWar to scope 'provided' - did not help. So the only possibility I see that's left is to exclude all dependencies of each single SWF application, which is a huge overhead to maintain as each SWF has a couple of SWF library dependencies.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
