Michael Osipov commented on MNG-5980:
-------------------------------------
While an explicit order is correct you provided, we do not necessary guarantee
and order. Especially not for transitives.
We should add documentation for now and have this issue tracked for Maven 4+.
> DependencyGraphBuilder gives different results depending on the order of

> Key: MNG-5980

> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Dependencies, Plugin API
> Environment: Kubuntu 14.10
> Java 8

> I'm getting different results when using DependencyGraphBuilder in a plugin
> depending on the order in which the dependencies are defined in the pom of
> the project the plugin is running on. I have created some test projects to
> reproduce the bug.
> - actual-dependency: This is the dependency that moves when changing the
> order in the pom.
> - test-dependency: Depends on the actual-dependency with compile scope.
> - compile-dependency: Also depends on the actual-dependency with compile
> scope.
> - main-project: Depends on the test-dependency with test scope and on the
> compile-dependency with compile scope. Has the plugin configured.
> - plugin: Builds the dependency graph.
> When running maven with the -X switch on the main project with the
> test-dependency declared first in the pom I get the following dependency
> graph:
> {code}
> [DEBUG] com.qmino:main-project:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT
> [DEBUG] com.qmino:test-dependency:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT:test
> [DEBUG] com.qmino:actual-dependency:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT:compile
> [DEBUG] com.qmino:compile-dependency:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT:compile
> {code}
> When I change the order of the dependencies I get:
> {code}
> [DEBUG] com.qmino:main-project:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT
> [DEBUG] com.qmino:compile-dependency:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT:compile
> [DEBUG] com.qmino:actual-dependency:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT:compile
> [DEBUG] com.qmino:test-dependency:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT:test
> {code}
> It seems to me that the order of the dependencies shouldn't change the
> results. In both cases I would expect the second output, since the compile
> scope should overrule the test scope.
