Problems with dependencies (Digester) of self written plugin

[Martin Burger]

Hello,

I'm developing a plugin for Maven (1.0.2) and run into trouble. The 
plugin has - among other - the following dependencies:

       <dependency>
           <groupId>commons-beanutils</groupId>
           <artifactId>commons-beanutils</artifactId>
           <version>1.7.0</version>
           <url>http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/</url>
       </dependency>
       <dependency>
           <groupId>commons-digester</groupId>
           <artifactId>commons-digester</artifactId>
           <version>1.7</version>
           <url>http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/digester/</url>
       </dependency>
       <dependency>
           <groupId>commons-io</groupId>
           <artifactId>commons-io</artifactId>
           <version>1.0</version>
           <url>http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/io/</url>
           <properties>
               <classloader>root</classloader>
           </properties>
       </dependency>
       <dependency>
           <groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
           <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
           <version>1.0.4</version>
           <url>http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/</url>Missing 
DTD definition for BeanPropertySetterRule
       </dependency>
       <dependency>
           <groupId>xml-apis</groupId>
           <artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId>
           <version>1.0.b2</version>
       </dependency>

If I run my unit tests in the IDE (Eclipse) or via the goal test, 
everything runs fine. But if I want to use my plugin after "maven 
plugin:install", it does not work.

The plugin parses the Junit test reports using commons-digester, my code 
has test coverage of 100%! Running the plugin there are some strange 
errors, parts of the XML report are not parsed (ignored). If I add that 
XML report to my test suite, everything works as expected. So, I think 
my code is "correct".

The parts ignored while the plugin run should be collected via a 
"bean-property-setter-rule". I searched issues.apache.org for bugs and 
found that one: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16785

According to that bug, the rule "bean-property-setter-rule" was added 
after Digester 1.4.1 release. My code uses 1.7...

So, I looked into the lib folder of my Maven installation, and there is 
a commons-digester-1.4.1.jar.

I think while running the plugin Digester 1.7 is not used, "Maven's" 
1.4.1 is used instead. Therefore some parts of the XML report are ignored.

While running a plugin that has a dependency to a jar that Maven depends 
on, which version is used for the plugin? How can I force that the right 
version is used for my plugin?

Thanks,
   Martin
