Didier Loiseau created MNG-8295: ----------------------------------- Summary: Dependency Manager Transitivity (now default) handles dependency management inconsistently Key: MNG-8295 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8295 Project: Maven Issue Type: Bug Components: API, Core Affects Versions: 4.0.0-beta-4 Reporter: Didier Loiseau Attachments: dependency-transitivity-inconsistency.zip
Since MNG-7982, {{maven.resolver.dependencyManagerTransitivity}} ({{{}true{}}} by default) configures the {{ClassicDependencyManager}} with the corresponding {{transitivity}} flag. It appears, however, that this behavior is inconsistent, because it ignores the dependency management of direct dependencies and only considers it for the transitive dependencies. I already described this in MNG-5761, but since the latter is a feature request (that should have been implemented by MNG-7982), I thought it would make more sense to track this inconsistency as a bug. The attached [^dependency-transitivity-inconsistency.zip] (copied from MNG-5761) can be used to show the issue. I’m running with {code:java} $ mvn -v Apache Maven 4.0.0-beta-4 (697c543b4e3bbec1b99e9d4d1ee8e0302e748f09) Maven home: /home/didier/.sdkman/candidates/maven/4.0.0-beta-4 Java version: 21.0.2, vendor: Oracle Corporation, runtime: /home/didier/.sdkman/candidates/java/21.0.2-open Default locale: en_GB, platform encoding: UTF-8 OS name: "linux", version: "6.8.0-45-generic", arch: "amd64", family: "unix" {code} First you can see that {{dependent-pom}} manages the version of {{commons-collections}} to *3.2.2* ({{{}commons-beanutils:1.9.2{}}} depends on 3.2.1): {code:java} $ mvn dependency:tree -f dependent-pom.xml … [INFO] MNG-5761:dependent:pom:1.0-SNAPSHOT [INFO] \- commons-beanutils:commons-beanutils:jar:1.9.2:compile [INFO] +- commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.1.1:compile [INFO] \- commons-collections:commons-collections:jar:3.2.2:compile {code} Now install {{parent-pom}} and {{{}dependent-pom{}}}, and check the dependencies of {{{}depending-pom{}}}: {code:java} $ mvn install -f parent-pom.xml $ mvn install -f dependent-pom.xml $ mvn dependency:tree -f depending-pom.xml … [INFO] MNG-5761:depending:pom:1.0-SNAPSHOT [INFO] \- MNG-5761:dependent:pom:1.0-SNAPSHOT:compile [INFO] \- commons-beanutils:commons-beanutils:jar:1.9.2:compile [INFO] +- commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.1.1:compile [INFO] \- commons-collections:commons-collections:jar:3.2.1:compile {code} you can see that the {{<dependencyManagement>}} of {{dependent}} is ignored (like with Maven 3), and we get {{commons-collections}} *3.2.1* instead.
