Hi Folks,
I'm looking for a maven guru to give me a bit of a hand here ...
I'm trying to write a DSpace module, which has the dspace-api as a
dependency, and is itself built into an artifact of type WAR.
Unfortunately, I have to also write a small patch for the DSpace core to
invoke a piece of functionality in my module (it needs a hook in to an
event, basically) at a point in the item workflow. I have therefore
specified my module as a dependency in the dspace-api pom, thus:
<dependency>
<groupId>uk.co.symplectic</groupId>
<artifactId>dspace-symplectic</artifactId>
<version>SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>war</type>
</dependency>
I've ensured that this artifact is available in the maven repository
locally (built against a published version of the dspace 1.5.1 artefact
in the main maven repo), so when dspace-api from svn builds it should be
able to pick this up. Indeed, no complaints there, it seems to find
what it's looking for, and IDEA agrees with me that the maven
configuration is correct. And yet, when I mvn clean package on the
dspace top level module, when it builds the dspace-api module, I get the
following compile error:
[INFO]

IDEA completely disagrees with the unavailability of this package, by
giving me access to the WorkflowHackTools API from within the
WorkflowManager class.
I've a feeling this is something to do with the circular dependency of
my module on dspace-api and vice versa, but can't see what I'm doing
wrong at all. Perhaps I need to produce a jar artifact with my files in
it instead?
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Richard
