after importing a project into eclipse using m2e plugin, the build path contains entries not specified by the dependencies in the pom.xml file. Why?
The dependencies are shown in the following file.
pom.xml:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>${spring.group}</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
<version>${spring.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>${spring.group}</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-aop</artifactId>
<version>${spring.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.aspectj</groupId>
<artifactId>aspectjweaver</artifactId>
<version>1.6.4</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>cglib</groupId>
<artifactId>cglib-nodep</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>4.5</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
<artifactId>mockito-core</artifactId>
<version>1.8.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
<artifactId>mockito-all</artifactId>
<version>1.8.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
Edit:
When i posted this question, i were new to maven (and i still) but after reading about transitive dependencies i discovered the answer to my question.
