Konrad Windszus updated MNG-8097:
---------------------------------
Description:
Currently often the dependency's type is being set to the extension and the
resolution is lenient, i.e. if there is no artifact handler defining the value
given in {{dependency->type}} resolution transparently uses the type as
extension.
That can potentially lead to two issues:
1. Resolution might fail with surprising error messages like
{code}
Could not resolve dependencies for project ....: The following artifacts could
not be resolved: <gav>: Could not transfer artifact
<groupId>:<artifactId>:<unknown-type>:<version> from/to ...
{code}
This is an issue for all types not defined by Maven Core itself, e.g. for
https://jackrabbit.apache.org/filevault-package-maven-plugin/index.html which
registers an artifact handler for type {{content-package}} with extension
{{zip}}.
2. The information {{addedToClasspath}}, {{includesDependencies}} and
{{classifier}} from the artifact handler is not evaluated
