Issue with properties inherited from parent POM
-----------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-5099
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5099
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Inheritance and Interpolation
Affects Versions: 3.0.3
Environment: java 1.6.0_24
Reporter: Dan Checkoway
This worked absolutely fine in 2.2.1. Fails in 3.0.3.
./deps/pom.xml has:
<properties>
<mysql.connector.version>5.1.16</mysql.connector.version>
</properties>
./library/pom.xml has:
<parent>
<groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
<artifactId>base</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<relativePath>../deps/pom.xml</relativePath>
</parent>
...
<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>${mysql.connector.version}</version>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
./otherlib/pom.xml has:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
<artifactId>mycompany-library</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
cd library
mvn deploy (all good)
cd otherlib
mvn compile (fails)
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project mycompany-otherlib: Could not resolve
dependencies for project com.mycompany:mycompany-otherlib:jar:1.0: Failure to
find mysql:mysql-connector-java:jar:${mysql.connector.version} in
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution
will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or
updates are forced -> [Help 1]
It's as if it's treating the ${mysql.connector.version} in the runtime
dependency literally, instead of resolving that property.
I can work around this by adding this to library/pom.xml:
<properties>
<mysql.connector.version>5.1.16</mysql.connector.version>
</properties>
Please let me know if I'm missing something simple, but it worked fine without
the workaround in 2.2.1, and this looks like a bug to me!
