Michael Osipov commented on MNG-7563: ------------------------------------- [~gnodet], [~slachiewicz], [~cstamas], [~rfscholte], what is your opinion on this? Please also read MNG-5982. > User properties now override model properties in dependencies > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-7563 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7563 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Dependencies, POM > Affects Versions: 3.8.5, 3.8.6 > Reporter: Hervé Guillemet > Assignee: Michael Osipov > Priority: Major > Fix For: waiting-for-feedback > > Attachments: poms.zip > > > An important change has been introduced in 3.8.5 that breaks some existing > builds: Java system properties now take precedence over default values of > user properties in dependency POMs. This look like a bug since it's now easy > to affect dependency behaviors with system properties, a practice that has > been discouraged. But maybe do you consider this as a new feature ? > As an example, 3 poms are attached to this ticket. > After installing projects b and c, building project a with: > {{mvn package -Ddep=x}} > used to succeed until 3.8.4 (-D is ignored) but throws error with 3.8.5 and > 3.8.6 (-D override the default). > Note that without the setting of the default value for property {{dep}} in > project b, the build fails with any version of Maven. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
