disallow use of ${project.version} in dependency versions
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-2486
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2486
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Dependencies, Inheritence and Interpolation, POM
Affects Versions: 2.0.4
Reporter: John Casey
Priority: Critical
when projects specify dependencyManagement sections with a shorthand version
notation using the current project version (using ${project.version}) the
version resolved will be that of the POM in which the dependencyManagement
section is specified. If this POM is a snapshot, these dependency
specifications will get the timestamp/buildnumber of that POM, instead of the
actual one used when the dependency it references gets deployed.
We should look at strategies for limiting or eliminating this practice, or else
(somehow) pulling the real timestamp/buildnumber for that artifact from the
reactor...in order to make these deps transitively resolvable for users.
