Maven assembly plugin doesn't throws error when dependency version contains the
brackets for tight tolerance
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-453
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-453
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-1
Environment: Any
Reporter: BJ Allmon
Priority: Minor
Current behavior:
A module that executes an assembly will fail with a build error indicating that
the dependency artifact version is null for any dependency that includes
brackets.
The brackets are used indirectly through a property. For example:
<version>${myApplication.currentVersion}</version> =
<version>[1.0-SNAPSHOT]</version>
The work around(s):
1. Manage static dependency versions in the POM files that include the assembly
2. Maintain two different properties. One for build dependencies with brackets
and one for assemblies without brackets.
FIX:
The assembly plugin should simply ignore possible dependency ranges and other
things that are used. Larger projects use properties for version when there are
several modules to manage.
