AbstractJavadocMojo#getClasspath(..) should use subProject's managedVersionMap
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MJAVADOC-198
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-198
Project: Maven 2.x Javadoc Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Detelin Yordanov
Attachments: AbstractJavadocMojo.patch
Hi,
We had a problem using Eclipse artifacts that contain version qualifiers,
e.g. artifact foo version 3.3.0-SomeQualifier is not resolved
when the dependency version definition uses a version range e.g.:
<dependency>
<artifactId>foo<artifactId>
<version>[3.3.0,4.0.0)</version>
<groupId>some Group...</groupId>
<dependency>
We found a workaround for this described here:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-405.
The workaround is to use maven 2.0.9+ and define concrete versions for the
eclipse artifacts in a <dependencyManagement> section of our project, thus
overriding the range version definitions in some of the eclipse poms.
e.g.:
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.equinox</groupId>
<artifactId>common</artifactId>
<version>3.3.0-v20070426</version>
</dependency>
....
</dependencies>
<dependencyManagement>
This helped us to build our project without getting version range issues,
however when we ran javadoc:javadoc we found out that
the javadoc dependency resolution does not take into account the
<dependencyManagement> section and we still get
the error:
An error has occurred in JavaDocs report generation: Couldn't find a version in
[3.2.0-v20060603, 3.3.0-v20070426] to match range [3.3.0,4.0.0)
org.eclipse.equinox:common:jar:null
When we examined the getClasspath(..) method of AbstractJavadocMojo we found
out that it uses the ArtifactResolver#resolveTransitively(..)
method that lacks the "managedVersions" Map parameter.
We made an according patch to use the method that specifies it, and our problem
was solved.
So the question is whether the usage of the #resolveTransitively(..) that lacks
"managedVersions" parameter is intentional or not.
If there is no problem with it, we would be very happy if you could change
this, so that we can successfully use the javadoc plugin in our project.
Kind Regards,
Detelin
