Maven codebase.
Coming back to my current setup:
All projects have as their own version 9.10-SNAPSHOT, and I build and deploy
snapshot versions:
pres.d:9.10-SNAPSHOT
srv.a:9.10-SNAPSHOT
common:9.10-SNAPSHOT
In the POM of pres.d, I have the dependency on srv.a defined as
srv.a:${ver-release} and the property ver-release is defined as [9.10,9.11). In
the POM of srv.a, I have the dependency on common defined as
common:${ver-release} and the property ver-release is defined as [9.10,9.11)
As you can see, I use the same property to specify the version of the
dependencies of my own modules.
When I make a release of a module using the maven-release-plugin, I specify the
options to generate a release-pom.xml and the releaseVersion and
developmentVersion properties, e.g. in module pres.d:
mvn release:prepare -DgenerateReleasePoms=true -DreleaseVersion=9.10.3
-DdevelopmentVersion=9.10-SNAPSHOT
This makes release pres.d:9.10.3, with the release-pom.xml pointing to the last
released version of srv.a at the time the release is created. In the regular
POM file, the version range is kept. So far so good.
Now for a developer setup, I want to override the version range *without
altering my POMs whatsoever*! I create an active profile in my settings.xml and
redefine the property ver-release with value 9.10-SNAPSHOT. If I do an mvn
dependency:resolve in pres.d, I read:
[INFO] The following files have been resolved:
[INFO] be.telenet.test:common:jar:9.10.4:compile
[INFO] be.telenet.test:srv.a:jar:9.10-SNAPSHOT:compile
Maven correctly used the overriden value of ver-release to resolve the
dependency from pres.d on srv.a, but when resolving the version of srv.a on
common, my overridden value was ignored and the version range was used.
Currently, common:9.10.4 is the last released version. I don't find this
consistent behaviour. I would like to have common:9.10-SNAPSHOT isnstead.
I found the ModelInterpolator in the code base where properties are replaced
with their actual value. At the time of writing, I try to find it the
interpolator is also used during the transitive dependency resolution step.
