--------------------------------
Assign To: Brett Porter
Resolution: Fixed
> Updating of dependencyManagement inconsistent with updating of dependencies
> with regard to SNAPSHOTs
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MRELEASE-91
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-91
> Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
> Type: Bug
> Versions: 2.0-beta-4
> Environment: maven 2.0.4, win XP
> Reporter: Marcel Schutte
> Assignee: Brett Porter
> Fix For: 2.0-beta-4
> Attachments: release.patch
>
>
> The mechanism in release:prepare for creating the new development version of
> POM's handles snapshots that are part of the current reactor build
> differently for dependencyManagement and for dependencies.
> A snapshot version in a dependencies section will be updated to the next
> development version whereas one in dependencyManagement won't.
> The attached patch will change this behavior. It will update a snapshot
> version under dependencyManagement if and only if it is part of the current
> reactor build.
> Note that dependencies cannot contain snapshot versions that are not part of
> the current reactor, but dependencyManagement can. I suggest to forbid this
> too.
> A second suggestion is to introduce a parameter to control the updating of
> snapshot dependencies in both dependencyManagement and dependencies sections.
> Either leave them at the released version or update them to the new
> development version. This touches on the discussion in MRELEASE-36 about the
> developer having to knowingly choose to use a new development version. I
> would be fine with using a parameter to select the behavior as obtained with
> my patch. My central point is that dependencyManagement and dependencies
> snapshots should behave the same.
