Carlos Sanchez updated MNG-1577: -------------------------------- Summary: dependencyManagement does not work for transitive dependencies (was: dependencyManagent does not work for transitive dependencies) > dependencyManagement does not work for transitive dependencies > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-1577 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1577 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Artifacts and Repositories > Affects Versions: 2.0 > Reporter: Joerg Schaible > Fix For: 2.1 > > > The dependencyManagement does not work for transient dependencies. The > specified version is ignored. > Use case: > Main POM defines commons-digester-1.6 and commons-beanutils-1.7.0, A-SNAPSHOT > and B-SNAPSHOT > Project A is child of Main and depends directly on commons-beanutils (version > inherited from Main) > Project B is child of Main and depends directly on commons-digester (version > inherited from Main) > Project C is child of Main and depends directly on A & B (versions inherited > from Main) > A is compiled and tests are run using commons-beanutils-1.7.0 > B is compiled and tests are run using commons-digester-1.6 and > commons-beanutils-1.6, since digester is dependend on this > C is compiled and tests are run using commons-beanutils-1.7.0 > Integration tests of B did not verify, that B is behaving as expected in this > scenario. B might fail with 1.7.0 and it is not even recognized. > If I add beanutils also as direct dependency to B, it works fine, but then > are transitive dependency useless. It should be possible to define at least > in the dependencyManagement, that the versions of transient dependencies also > defined in the dependencyManagement have priority. > - Jörg -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
