How to exclude the default lib coming from $GRAILS_HOME/libs/ in Grails 2.4.3

Question

I am using Grails 2.4.3 I have com.google.guava:guava:10.0.1 lib included in $GRAILS_HOME/libs/ and all dependencies in $GRAILS_HOME/libs/ are included in my app by following code in my BuildConfig.groovy

    grails.project.dependency.resolution = {
        // inherit Grails' default dependencies
        inherits("global") {
    }
    .....
    }

Now the question is that I want to use the latest version of com.google.guava:guava:21.0 so how can I exclude the default com.google.guava:guava:10.0.1 lib coming from $GRAILS_HOME/libs/ ?

Answer 1

You can just override the dependencies in the BuildConfig.groovy like in Docs explained: http://docs.grails.org/2.4.3/guide/conf.html#configurationsAndDependencies

dependencies {
    compile 'com.google.guava:guava:21.0'
}
