--------------------------------

             Summary: Support resolution of Import Scope POMs from Repo that 
contains a ${parameter}
                 Key: MNG-5639
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5639
             Project: Maven 2 & 3
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Dependencies
    Affects Versions: 3.2.1
            Reporter: Mark Ingram
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: pom.xml

Running mvn help-effective-pom on the attached POM:

[ERROR]   The project com.ming:maven-failing-import-pom-example:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT 
(C:\wip\scratch-dev\maven-import-dependency-management\pom.xml) has 1 error
[ERROR]     Non-resolvable import POM: Could not transfer artifact 
org.springframework:spring-framework-bom:pom:4.0.0.R2 from/to spring-milestones 
(${spring.url}): No connector available to access repository spring-milestones 
(${spring.url}) of type default using the available factories 
WagonRepositoryConnectorFactory @ line 20, column 25 -> Help 2]

mvn help-effective-pom -Prepo-will-succeed works as expected.



Note that prior to attempting the failing resolution the full project POM model 
has successfully been resolved. So the correct value for the property is known 
and could in theory be substituted into the repository URL before the failing 
import pom resolve attempt.


Will create a Github pull request with one possible solution to this - it 
includes a JUnit test case.


Note: agreed this is a contrived example. To try and give an idea of the actual 
use case - several development streams are setup with individual sandboxed 
Nexus repository holding specific version of several shared components. The 
repository configuration uses the pattern 
${nexus.baseurl}/content/groups/${stream.name} with the properties set in 
settings.xml file. 

One workaround would be to create profiles for every work stream that 
explicitly list the full repository URL, even then the above feature would be 
nice to allow the ${nexus.baseurl} to avoid repeating that part.
