Michael Osipov commented on MDEP-558: ------------------------------------- It pretty much looks like a core issue now. Can you check the open issues in MNG for similarities. I think I have seen one or two. If so, I'd move this one to MNG. > Dependency version from test scope leaks into compile scope > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MDEP-558 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-558 > Project: Maven Dependency Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: tree > Affects Versions: 2.8, 2.10, 3.0.0 > Reporter: Andrei Tomashpolskiy > Attachments: mvn_package.txt > > > Despite test scope being non-transitive [1] it's still used to resolve > versions of compile dependencies. This might be causing issues in IDEs that > rely on the Dependency plugin to assemble the application's classpath. > E.g. for the following project configuration *javax.servlet-api* version is > resolved to *3.0.1* (using nearest-first strategy to resolve conflicts): > {noformat} > project1 > |-- project2:compile > |..|-- jetty-server:compile > |....|-- javax.servlet-api:3.1.0:compile > |-- jersey-test-framework-core:test > |..|-- javax.servlet-api:3.0.1:compile > {noformat} > My understanding is that it should rather be resolved to 3.1.0, because > version 3.0.1 stems from the test scope and should be ignored (AFAIK Maven > Shade plugin works in that way). > Please see a runnable code example in > https://github.com/atomashpolskiy/maven-transitive-test-dependencies > Thank you! > [1] > http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
