Plugin omits transitive runtime dependencies where artifact is present with
test-scope in current project
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-582
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-582
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.2.1
Environment: Linux, Sun 64-bit JDK 1.6.24
Reporter: Michael
Attachments: map-jira-1.zip
Let's say I have Project1, which has a runtime dependency on an artifact, e.g.
Log4j, and Project2 which is defined to have a runtime dependency on Project1.
Project2 defines a dependency on Log4j with test-scope.
P1 --runtime--> P2 --runtime--> Log4j
|
test
|
V
Log4j
If I define a descriptor in Project2 to include runtime dependencies, the Log4j
artifact is not included in the resulting ZIP unless it is removed from
Project2's dependencies first.
This can be replicated through the use of the attached map-jira-1.zip files.
1) Unzip to the filesystem
2) Execute mvn package from the maven-assembly-jira1 directory
3) Inspect the contents of the ZIP in project2/target (on *nix: unzip -l
project2/target/*.zip). Note the absence of Log4j.
4) Edit project2/pom.xml to comment-out the dependency on Log4j.
5) Execute mvn package from the maven-assembly-jira1 directory
6) Inspect the contents of the ZIP in project2/target. Note the inclusion of
Log4j.
This may not be entirely surprising to this plugin's developers. This is a
specific issue for us since several projects define APIs and separate
implementations. We depend on the API at compile-time and for testing use some
implementation thereof. For example, we depend on SLF4j API and leave
definition of the runtime logging implementation to some runtime, base-project
(in this example, Project1). For testing purposes we need to define an SLF4j
implementation, which just so happens (fancy that) to be the one we use in
production. Our resulting deployable is created without the correct dependency
set.
I would have expected to receive all the runtime, transitive dependencies of my
dependencies whether or not I declare a test dependency on those artifacts.
