Variable substition not performed in transitive dependency using value from
active profile
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3782
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3782
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Dependencies
Affects Versions: 2.0.9
Environment: Java version: 1.6.0_07
OS name: "windows xp" version: "5.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows"
Reporter: Robert Varttinen
Attachments: build.log, example.zip, settings.xml
When invoking the 'mvn compile' command and a profile is active, defined in
settings.xml, a variable substitution is not performed in a transitive
dependency.
In the example provided the project to be built, C, depends on B which in its
turn depends on A. The versions of B and A to be used are defined in a profile,
the POM-files defines a variable indicating the versions. The profile in
question is defined in the settings.xml and is always active (check with
command 'mvn help:active-profiles'). The results of project A and B are
successfully built and installed in the local repository.
Invoking a build for project C using a command line parameter indicating, 'mvn
compile -Dparentversion=0.0.1-SNAPSHOT, the versions render a successful build.
The transitive dependency is resolved correctly.
This problem is also visible in Eclipse, m2eclipse, as the project C in the
example provided, does not build (error indication). The example provided
includes Eclipse projects displaying this (version 0.9.7.20081001-2217 of the
Eclipse plugin is used).
The settings.xml and a build log are provided as attachments to this issue.
