Gradle example to exclude commons-logging from Spring frameworks.
build.gradle
compile('org.springframework:spring-webmvc:4.2.4.RELEASE'){
exclude group: 'commons-logging', module: 'commons-logging'
}
If you have multiple Spring dependencies, you have to exclude for each
build.gradle
compile('org.springframework:spring-webmvc:4.2.4.RELEASE'){
exclude group: 'commons-logging', module: 'commons-logging'
}
compile('org.springframework:spring-test:4.2.4.RELEASE'){
exclude group: 'commons-logging', module: 'commons-logging'
}
A better solution is excluding commons-logging at the project level.
build.gradle
configurations.all {
exclude group: "commons-logging", module: "commons-logging"
}
compile 'org.springframework:spring-webmvc:4.2.4.RELEASE'
compile 'org.springframework:spring-test:4.2.4.RELEASE'
Keeps telling me exclude is an unrecognized symbol. Using gradle 3.3
I also faced exact same issue and I was able to resolve the issue from here: https://discuss.gradle.org/t/you-cant-change-a-configuration-which-is-not-in-unresolved-state-when-building-for-sonar/4631
Update config as below:
configurations {
[compile, runtime]*.exclude module: “org.osgi.foundation”
}
