Steffen Grunwald commented on MRELEASE-467:
-------------------------------------------
I encountered a scenario similar to that of Stevo where neither Oliver's
proposal nor ${project.version} fits.
I created 2 testcases and a patch for the rewriting of plugin/dependencies
elements.
> Release preparation should update version of plugin dependencies
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MRELEASE-467
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-467
> Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: prepare
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-9
> Reporter: Stevo Slavic
> Attachments: whizbang.zip
>
>
> Currently plugin prepare release will update project dependencies, but not
> project plugin dependencies. Please support updating version of plugin
> dependencies as part of the prepare goal.
> This would be useful if one has a multi-module project with one module
> defining plugin with dependency to other project module, e.g. like in
> suggested handling of sharing checkstyle configuration between modules of a
> project (see
> http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-checkstyle-plugin/examples/multi-module-config.html
> and attached eclipse project). There one build resources module contains
> checkstyle configuration to be shared, while parent module inherited by all
> other project modules (except one with the checkstyle configuration) defines
> checkstyle plugin with added dependency to build resources module. Parent
> module defines build resources module as it's module, and both are built at
> the same time, likely all of them have same version. Currently version of
> plugin dependency version doesn't get updated automatically by prepare goal.
