> Key: MINDEXER-34

> Project: Maven Indexer
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 4.1.0
> Environment: JDK 6, Ubuntu, Maven 3.0.3; actually Indexer 4.1.1 but
> that is not listed as an option here
> Reporter: Jesse Glick
> Assignee: Tamás Cservenák
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 4.1.2

> While working on a utility inside NetBeans to look up all plugins using a
> given goal prefix, I found unreliable behavior. To investigate, I wrote a
> unit test that used Maven Indexer (along with some NB helper classes) that:
> 1. Creates a fresh local repository.
> 2. Installs a trivial "plugin" ({{maven-plugin}} POM + JAR) with just a
> {{META-INF/maven/plugin.xml}} containing
> {{<plugin><goalPrefix>stuff</goalPrefix></plugin>}}.
> 3. Indexes the repository, using all available {{IndexCreator}} instances.
> 4. Runs a search like {{ArtifactInfo.PLUGIN_PREFIX="stuff"}} and checks that
> there is one hit.
> This test passed sometimes - including always when run from the debugger -
> but usually failed. Eventually I found that the order of {{IndexCreator}}
> instances returned from the Plexus container mattered: if {{min}} preceded
> {{maven-plugin}} then the test passed, whereas if {{min}} followed
> {{maven-plugin}} then the test failed. Furthermore, despite
> {{META-INF/plexus/components.xml}} listing these implementations in a
> particular order (seemingly arbitrary at build time), the actual order
> returned by {{PlexusContainer.lookupList}} seemed to vary randomly from run
> to run.
> The problem may have to do with
> {{MinimalArtifactInfoIndexCreator.updateLegacyDocument}}, which does
> something with {{PLUGIN_PREFIX}} and {{PLUGIN_GOALS}} for reasons unclear to
> me. When the creators were in the "wrong" order,
> http://code.google.com/p/luke/ confirmed that {{px}} and {{gx}} fields were
> just not present.
> I can work around this issue in the NetBeans code which indexes the local
> repository, using a hardcoded list of indexers (or rather, indexer IDs) as
> {{AbstractIndexCreatorHelper}} in the Indexer test sources does. But that
> does not help for downloaded remote indices, which might have been created by
> a faulty version of Indexer - since {{NexusIndexerCli.getIndexers}} uses
> {{lookupList}} when {{--type full}} is used. This means that any queries
> about plugin prefixes or goals may return results only for plugins which
> happen to have been downloaded locally. Indeed this is exactly what seems to
> happen when I try it, i.e. the Central index I am getting (via a proxy in
> Nexus 1.9.1.1) has no {{PLUGIN_*}} fields.
> The less desirable workaround would be to run a search on
> {{ArtifactInfo.PACKAGING="maven-plugin"}}, and for each hit, download the
> actual JAR and parse {{plugin.xml}} myself.
> I am not sure whether the position of
> {{MavenArchetypeArtifactInfoIndexCreator}} also matters, but it seems
> plausible, since it overrides a field normally stored in
> {{MinimalArtifactInfoIndexCreator}}.
