I want to remove unnecessary dependencies from pom.xml. I have used mvn dependency:analyze and I got these results. Do I need to remove used undeclared dependencies and unused declared dependencies? May I know how can I remove dependencies from maven, so that I can build my project quickly?

[WARNING] Used undeclared dependencies found:

    As far as I know used undeclared dependencies are those that you didn't declare in your pom.xml but are transitive dependencies of those you did declare - plus your code directly uses them. This could lead to build problems if the version of a transitive dependency changes so you might want to think about declaring them. Unused declared dependencies are those you declared in your pom.xml but your code doesn't seem to use them - they might be safe to remove but the plugin might also have missed a usage, so try and check. If they are still needed, tell Maven to ignore them in the analysis. – Thomas Dec 07 '21 at 10:59

    I would do step by step...remove one and check your tests and go on... – khmarbaise Dec 07 '21 at 10:59
  • @Thomas Could you tell me how to remove Unused declared dependencies since they are not direct libraries in pom.xml – user3632140 Dec 07 '21 at 11:08

    Look at your pom.xml, you should have listed them there - that's what I understand "declared" means. – Thomas Dec 07 '21 at 11:10
