inherited plugin dependencies
-----------------------------

         Key: MNG-1836
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1836
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Bug

    Versions: 2.0    
    Reporter: Gilles Scokart


I have project composed of a reactor/parent pom.xml and a few module.

In the parent pom.xml, I have somthing like this :

<plugins>
....
          <plugin>
                        <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
                        <executions>
                        <execution>
                                <!-- The assembly plugin is not flexible 
enought for what we have to do -->
                                <phase>package</phase>
                                <configuration>
                                        <tasks>
                                                <property name="version.number" 
value="${project.version}"/>
                                                <ant 
antfile="src/build/build.xml" inheritRefs="true"/>
                                        </tasks>
                                </configuration>
                                <goals><goal>run</goal></goals>
                        </execution>
                        </executions>
                        <inherited>false</inherited>
                </plugin>
...
</plugins>

In one of the module, I have 

        <plugins> 
...
            <plugin>
                        <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
                        <executions>
                        <execution>
                                <phase>generate-test-sources</phase>
                                <configuration>
                                        <tasks>
                                                <ant 
antfile="src/test/ant/build.xml" inheritRefs="true"/>
                                        </tasks>
                                        
<testSourceRoot>target/generated-sources/nextmock</testSourceRoot>
                                </configuration>
                                <goals>
                                        <goal>run</goal>
                                </goals>
                        </execution>
                        </executions>
                        <dependencies>
                                     <dependency>
                                                <!-- Required to use javac --> 
                                                <groupId>sun.jdk</groupId>
                                                <artifactId>tools</artifactId>
                                                <version>1.5</version>
                                                <scope>system</scope>
                                                
<systemPath>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</systemPath>
                                        </dependency>
                        </dependencies>
                </plugin>
...
</plugins>

It seems that the dependencies is in the sub-module is not loaded, probably 
because the plugin is loaded in the parent pom (or in the reactor pom which is 
the same in many cases) and not updated afterward.

The simple work around is to place the dependencies into the reactor plugin 
declaration. (A strange thing is that the dependecy doesn't need to be present 
in the module declaration anymore in that case)

I tried also to place it only int the pluginManagment section but it doesn't 
work.  The dependency is not loaded.
