---------------------------------------
Summary: Common error in Maven Repository causes problems with
Buildr
Key: BUILDR-674
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-674
Project: Buildr
Issue Type: Bug
Environment: Windows 7
Reporter: Colbert Philippe
I used Maven for the longest time on projects. Maven could download all the
artifacts needed for my current project. I decided to upgrade to Buildr. I
first noticed that Buildr could not download all the artifacts that Maven
could, even using the same Maven Repositories. I noticed that most of these
discrepancies are caused by errors in the artifact coordinates. Sometimes on
the repository, the format of the artifact will bt 'bundle' instead of 'jar'.
I have fixed that on a few artifacts.
However, if the artifact as many dependencies, that causes a major problem with
Buildr.
Try to download ActiveMQ artifact with Buildr. It gives you this coordinates
which will not download.
'org.apache.activemq:activemq-core:bundle:5.7.0'
You have to fix the format bundle for jar then it downloads.
'org.apache.activemq:activemq-core:jar:5.7.0'
But the dependency resolution fails following the download, which is probably
caused by a symbolic mismatch internally.
You should press the maven repository to fix all their 'bundle' mistakes. And
while we are at it, why doesn't somebody test all the artifact downloads
available in Buildr ? It should be done!
