Benjamin Bentmann updated MNG-4600: ----------------------------------- Summary: [regression] Optional flag from dependency management applied to dependencies (was: Dependency not retrieved with maven 3 although it was with maven 2) > [regression] Optional flag from dependency management applied to dependencies > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-4600 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4600 > Project: Maven 2 & 3 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Dependencies > Affects Versions: 3.0-alpha-7 > Environment: Apache Maven 3.0-alpha-7 (r921173; 2010-03-09 > 23:31:07+0100) > Java version: 1.5.0_17 > Java home: c:\projet\MM\outils\jdk\1.5.0\jre > Default locale: fr_FR, platform encoding: Cp1252 > OS name: "windows xp" version: "5.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows" > Reporter: Baptiste MATHUS > Fix For: 3.0-alpha-8 > > Attachments: bug-maven.zip > > > The situation is quite complex to explain. I've a parent pom that defines > dependencies in depMgmt. There's two projects in the multimodule project, the > second depending on the first. > Excerpt (parent/depMgmt): > <dependency> > <groupId>ch.qos.logback</groupId> > <artifactId>logback-classic</artifactId> > <version>${logback.version}</version> > <scope>runtime</scope> > <optional>true</optional> > First child (redefines scope only): > <dependency> > <groupId>ch.qos.logback</groupId> > <artifactId>logback-classic</artifactId> > <scope>compile</scope> > </dependency> > Second child: > <dependency> > <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId> > <artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId> > </dependency> > <dependency> > <groupId>m3pb</groupId> > <artifactId>subproject1</artifactId> > <version>${project.version}</version> > </dependency> > When running with maven 2, it works. When ran with maven 3, it fails on the > second project, with a NoClassDefFoundError on the logback jar. > I seem to understand this is actually a bug in maven 2: as the depMgmt > defines optional=true, it shouldn't have been working in maven2 without > redeclaring the dependency in the second project. > From my understanding: > * With maven 2, the transivity is taken in account and gives logback through > the subproject1 link (from the second) > * With maven 3, this just doesn't work and this is the correct behaviour. > Please excuse my basic analysis. > I'm attaching a test project to let see more precisely the problem. > If you need any help, please let me know. > Cheers > -- > Baptiste -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
