regression : <dependency> in plugin configuration doesn't override plugin classpath -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3426 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3426 Project: Maven 2 Issue Type: Bug Components: Plugin API Affects Versions: 2.0.8 Reporter: nicolas de loof Priority: Critical Many maven plugins are wrapper around other tools. The plugin is designed for a version of the tool, and in many case user will want to use a specific version without having to patch the plugin. The <dependency> element on plugin configuration is a common way to do this, by overriding the plugin POM dependency with another version. This used to work with maven < 2.0.8 In maven 2.0.8, this doesn't work anomire as the <dependency> set in plugin configuration is added to classpath, as a duplicate for the on declared by the plugin but LATER in the classpath. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
