I try to exclude a jar from gradle build but how to do that for my project part I am not clear.Below are the dependencies I have to exclude only geronimo-javamail_1.4_spec/1.7.1 jar because which gives error when I try to send mail.Please give your guidance to solve this.
dependencies {
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web")
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-batch")
//compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-devtools")
compile('org.apache.commons':'commons-lang3':'3.5'){
exclude module: 'geronimo'
}
compile group: 'org.apache.cxf', name: 'cxf-spring-boot-starter-jaxws', version: '3.1.10'
compile group: 'org.apache.cxf', name: 'cxf-rt-ws-security', version: '3.1.10'
testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test')
}
update:exclusion is not working
First of all, there is an issue with this statement:
compile('org.apache.commons':'commons-lang3':'3.5')
If you want to use the colon notation for a dependency, it has to be all in one String, like so:
compile('org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.5')
Also, you should probably use the full module name: module: 'geronimo-javamail_1.4_spec'.
Finally, geronimo-javamail_1.4_spec is a transitive dependency of more than one dependency in this setup, so you should exclude it everywhere where necessary one by one, or exclude it altogether like so:
configurations {
all*.exclude module: 'geronimo-javamail_1.4_spec'
}
This should be added in your build.gradle file at the same level as the dependencies{} section, not within it, so the final code would look like this:
configurations {
all*.exclude module: 'geronimo-javamail_1.4_spec'
}
dependencies {
testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.12'
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web")
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-batch")
//compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-devtools")
compile('org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.5')
compile group: 'org.apache.cxf', name: 'cxf-spring-boot-starter-jaxws', version: '3.1.10'
compile group: 'org.apache.cxf', name: 'cxf-rt-ws-security', version: '3.1.10'
testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test')
}
