Michael,

I've checked in the changes to the branch, with internal dependency version now set to 3.1-SNAPSHOT. That appears to work, but I'm encountering several more problems. 1. The release zip file does not include the parent-pom project, so you can't build from the release. 2. When I attempt to do mvn deploy, I get the following error. It looks like we need some more xml in our poms.

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Failed to configure plugin parameters for: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-deploy-plugin:2.4

check that the following section of the pom.xml is present and correct:

<distributionManagement>
  <!-- use the following if you're not using a snapshot version. -->
  <repository>
    <id>repo</id>
    <name>Repository Name</name>
    <url>scp://host/path/to/repo</url>
  </repository>
  <!-- use the following if you ARE using a snapshot version. -->
  <snapshotRepository>
    <id>repo</id>
    <name>Repository Name</name>
    <url>scp://host/path/to/repo</url>
  </snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>

Hi Michelle,

sorry for the late response, I found your email today.

You mentioned "but all dependencies, including the dependency on the api jar that we are in the process of releasing, are to non -SNAPSHOT versions. So, we build jdo-api-3.1-SNAPSHOT.jar, but we are dependent on jdo-api-3.1.jar".

I think that our own submodules (like jdo-api) still can have -SNAPSHOT versions in the dependencies section of the pom. The maven release plugin will update these -SNAPSHOT version names, too. I propose you change the version of the jdo-api in the dependencies section to 3.1-SNAPSHOT.

Can you send me a patch with your changes of the 3.1-rc1 branch, then I try a mvn clean install with a clean local repository.

Regards Michael

Yeah, I don't know of a way unless there's some kind of option in the maven release plugin that lets you set up your pom some other way. Here's a link to someone who seems to have a similar problem, as far as I understand what they are saying: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8411424/automating-maven-artifact-releasing

Michael has some familiarity with the maven versions plugin that is mentioned in the response.

Sounds pretty strange. So it would be impossible to release co-dependent artifacts?

Hi all,

Preparatory to attempting a release, I cleaned my local repository and did "mvn clean install". On building exectck, I got a build error:

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.

Missing:
----------
1) javax.jdo:jdo-api:jar:3.1

This is because, per the apache instructions, our release artifacts have -SNAPSHOT versions, but all dependencies, including the dependency on the api jar that we are in the process of releasing, are to non -SNAPSHOT versions. So, we build jdo-api-3.1-SNAPSHOT.jar, but we are dependent on jdo-api-3.1.jar. What is the best way around this issue?
