I have a pom which has a property which has as a value "2.3.1-SNAPSHOT".
The property is used to factor into one spot the version level for dependencies, where the dependencies are for other modules in a multi-module build (most of which have the same version level). When I do mvn release:prepare -DdryRun on a POM which includes this as a module, the release:prepare successfully updates the property, first, to "2.3.1" for the "tag", and then, for the next development version, to "2.3.2-SNAPSHOT". I think it figures out that this property is being used as a dependency version value, and matches it to version levels of things in the "Reactor", to figure out it needs updating. So far everything seems to be correct. But, if I do exactly the same thing, but leave off the "-DdryRun", it updates the property, first (as before), to "2.3.1" for the tag, but then does *not* update it for the next development version. Any idea why? Is this a (known) bug? I can, of course, work around this by manually updating this property to the right level and committing that change to the trunk. -Marshall Schor --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
