Rami Ojares commented on MNG-5979:
----------------------------------
I think we are onto something.
I tried to find which version I am using but it seems very difficult.
In my plugin I define a dependency like this:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-project</artifactId>
<version>3.0-alpha-2</version>
</dependency>
But I can not find anywhere to what version of maven-core javadoc api this
plugin refers to.
So I decided to look at the bytecode and there I can see that in
org.apache.maven:maven-project:3.0-alpha-2 is defined as
Set getPluginArtifacts();
whereas in my mave 3.3.9 installation it is indeed defined as
Set<Artifact> getPluginArtifacts();
Since 3.0-alpha-2 seems like the newest release of maven-project, how can I use
the api version 3.3.9 from my plugin?

> Key: MNG-5979
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5979
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 3.3.9
> Environment: linux, java 8
> Reporter: Rami Ojares
> Assignee: Karl Heinz Marbaise
>
> Reading maven javadoc api it contains generic types.
> But when in my Mojo I try to use them the collections seem not to know
> anything about generics.
> Example:
> project.getPluginArtifacts() returns List not List<Artifacts>
> I can still cast the Objects from the list to Artifact type.
> But
> List<Artifact> al = project.getPluginArtifacts();
> will produce an error.
> I simply downladed compiled version of maven 3.3.9 from maven's own site.
