Maven not picking up specific timestamped version dependency when a later
timestamped version was downloaded and already present in the local repository
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4189
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4189
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Artifacts and Repositories, General
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Reporter: Maria Odea Ching
To reproduce this issue:
# Create a project (let's call this projectA) with a class named ClassA having
a method named methodA(). Set the version as 1.0-SNAPSHOT and set
uniqueVersion=true.
# Deploy this in a remote repository
# Create another project (let's call this projectB) which has a dependency on
projectA. Set the dependency's version to the specific timestamped version when
projectA was deployed in step 2. Create a class named ClassB and add a method
which invokes ClassA's methodA().
# Add your remote repository either in the settings or in the pom.
# Build projectB. You will get a successful build.
# Now go back to projectA and remove methodA() from classA.
# Deploy projectA to the remote repository again.
# Update the dependency version of projectA in projectB's pom.xml. Set it to
the latest timestamp version.
# Build projectB. Your build will fail because methodA() was removed.
# Revert the dependency version of projectA in projectB's pom.xml. Set it to
the same value you've set in step 3.
# Build projectB. Your build will still fail even though you've set the correct
version.
