I dont know whether this is a bug or not (sounds like it though) but i do
know that i have had to stop using extensive property based customizations
in my complex multi-project environments due to a failure of many plugins
(really its an issue with the core API and not the plugins) to properly
interpolate these values when accessing the model/pom.xml. Show stoppers for
me were the site and release plugins. It seems that the plugin testing
regime doesnt cover inherited interpolated property stuff much.

Subject: Bug in POM validation when using dependencyManagement
Hi,
I make extensive use of the dependencyManagement section over multiple POM
hierchies.
I have them setup like this:
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>${pom.groupId}</groupId>
<artifactId>some-artifact</artifactId>
<version>${some-artifact}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
The actual version is defined in the same POM in the <properties> section
as e.g. <some-artifact>1.0-SNAPSHOT</some-artifact> (so that I can define
the version of child projects in one central place and use it in the
dependencyManagement at the same time).
When I declare this artifact as dependency in a child POM, I have to add
<version>${some-artifact}</version>, or else it will say
"'dependencies.dependency.version' is missing for [...]":
<dependency>
<groupId>org.dummy</groupId>
<artifactId>some-artifact</artifactId>
<version>${some-artifact}</version>
</dependency>
Of course, <version>${some-artifact}</version> should not be necessary, as
dependencyManagement in a parent pom already defined it.
Executing help:effective-pom shows that the elements in the
dependencyManagement section are correctly populated, including
"org.dummy:some-artifact:1.0-SNAPSHOT", so it looks like only the pom
validation is borked, not the actual dependencyManagement implementation.
Is this a known Bug?
Regards,
Michael
