Maven does not expand expressions while installing artifacts locally
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MARTIFACT-32
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MARTIFACT-32
Project: Maven Artifact
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Harsha Rai
When a pom uses expressions like: grizzly.version in the following pom.xml
> <project>
> <parent>
...
> <artifactId>grizzly-module</artifactId>
> <packaging>jar</packaging>
> <version>${grizzly.version}</version>
Everything works well when the project.version above is defined as a property
as 'grizzly.version'
The local repository layout also seems to be correct, for a given property
value for, grizzly.version.
What's going wrong is, maven just copies the same pom.xml to the local repo
directory and from there to the remote repo while deploying the
artifacts of the same project, whose version is parameterized.
In the strict sense, while parsing the pom and resolving the artifacts, maven
got the right version for the project.version for the project; the same should
have been used inside the pom file while installing locally. By doing this,
the expanded pom files will have right artifact information.
Users should be given a choice if they want maven to expand expressions in the
pom.xml or leave them as it is.
I don't know the right category of the project and component. Please reassign /
redirect as appropriate.
This belongs somewhere pom parsing, artifact resolver and mvn install.
thanks..
