Scott MacDonald updated ARCHETYPE-552:
--------------------------------------
Component/s: Plugin
> Valid Archetype projects can generate broken projects with inheritance cycle
>
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARCHETYPE-552
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-552
> Project: Maven Archetype
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Plugin
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1
> Reporter: Scott MacDonald
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: maven-archetype-parent-cycle-bug.zip
>
>
> When developing a multi module archetype with a root level aggregator pom
> which inherits from a sibling parent within the project, the archetype
> generated project will incorrectly add the aggregator pom as a parent to the
> sibling parent pom file, causing an inheritance cycle in the generated
> project.
> Attached is a zip file containing a minimal archetype project that
> demonstrates the behavior.
> After running mvn install, you can inspect
> target/test-classes/projects/it-basic/project/example-project/example-project-parent/pom.xml
> and see that the generated project incorrectly adds the top-level aggregate
> pom as a parent in the parent pom causing an inheritance cycle, even though
> such a parent designation is specified in the archetype resources.
>
> The exact element that is incorrectly added to
> target/test-classes/projects/it-basic/project/example-project/example-project-parent/pom.xml
> is below..
> <parent>
> <artifactId>example-project-aggregator</artifactId>
> <groupId>com.foo</groupId>
> <version>0.0.0</version>
> </parent>
>
> After the failure, removing the incorrect parent pom element from the
> target/test-classes/projects/it-basic/project/example-project/example-project-parent/pom.xml
> results in a working maven project.
