One simple way would be to simply invoke clean and deps before running the main uberjar code, but that's wasteful. > I tried to tackle this in a naive way — finding jar files based on the > project name — but this doesn't catch dependecies futher down the > chain, e.g. for lein-clojars this'll find the lein-clojars.jar but > won't find jsch.jar, its dependency.

I'm a little reluctant to make calculating the classpath any more complicated than it currently is since that logic needs to be duplicated in a few places, but I agree that the current situation is not great. Another idea would be to write a hidden blacklist file when fetching the dev dependencies. The uberjar could then check that to know which jars to skip.

Plus if you put clojure and contrib on the classpath before your uberjar, then the versions in your uberjar will be shadowed. -Phil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
