Dependencies contain the declaration of the shared profiles to use.
Each dependency is a set of shared profile names.
Those sets are referenced by the Jeyzer monitoring and analysis profiles and permit to filter the shared profiles taken out from a shared profile repository.
Those shared profiles get loaded in their declaration order.
<dependencies><set id="base-shared-deps" profiles="hibernate, c3p0, log4j, java"/><set id="company-shared-deps" profiles="framework1, framework2"/></dependencies>
Note : the shared profile automatic loading is an alternative to the above shared profile dependencies.
