Hi all, We are working on a project where a dependency is defined using a variable, i.e. a substition is supposed to take place. The variable value is defined in the settings.xml in an profile (always active in our case). The substition seems to work in the first line (direct) dependency. The next, transitive, seemingly has no effect. Maven reports that it cannot find the artifact in question, indicating the variable name as the version - not the value we defined in the profile.
We see this in Eclipse, m2eclipse installed. But, after some investigating we also see a similar problem on the command line when invoking the e.g. mvn compile. When invoking the same command using the -D option with the variable and value it works just fine. seemingly there seems to be some kind of problem with the variable substition... Could you please advice us on how to move forward in this issue when using m2eclipse? Any pointers are welcome. Thanks in advance, Robert
