-------------------------------
Summary: Tidy up dependencies
Key: OODT-863
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT-863
Project: OODT
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Tom Barber
This is something me and Michael Starch debated at apachecon and I've been
wanting to do for a long time.
Most multi module projects I work with have their dependency versions set at
the top level that way its easy to change the dependency version for the
project and keep everything in sync across the whole build rather than (as in
one case I found) have 4 different versions of the same dependency.
I've moved them all to the core pom and ordered them alphabetically, if no one
is too unhappy with this I'll finish off the reordering in the other poms and
we can continue as usual. I've tried a local build nothing fails(although who
knows once it hits jenkins), and if there really is a need to override a
specific dependency version on a per module basis this can still be done.
Personally I think its a useful tidy up and of benefit to the developers new
and old.
