I totally agree that a > refactoring to use environment variable in place of the hard coded paths > would solve my problem. But instead the Windows path is defined in a > property. *One would think that overriding the value of the property > depending on my platform would be enough.* But it is not. > Unfortunately in this precise case case maven seems to behave to behave > poorly. > Before applying any property override in any form (in settings.xml, > -Dproperty=, redefinition in root pom), maven starts building the effective > pom. And during that step, if it finds the pattern I mentioned above (a > dependency on another pom that itself imports a pom that contains a Windows > path), then it says: > {code:xml} > The POM for <groupId>:<artifactId>:jar:<version> is invalid, transitive > dependencies (if any) will not be available > {code} > As a consequence, my project needs to explicitly define all the dependencies > of the second project. And I cannot rely on transitive dependencies which > gives me a lot of trouble. > In order to illustrate the issue, I created a minimal example showing the > problem. It can be found here: > [https://github.com/fabricepipart/test-properties] > Can you confirm this is a bug from maven? > I tested with several versions of maven. 3.0 up to a 3.3.9 I think. > The issue remains the same. It is all a matter of redefining the value of the > property based on the environment. If I *launch maven with > -Dcom.sun.tools.path=/correct/linux/path*, globally my build is fine. Because > when the classes are compiled, it is the *overriden Linux path that is > taken*, not the Windows one. > But during the *initial evaluation of the pom*(before any maven phase is > started), the error I mentioned above is thrown because the *value of the > property is still the Windows one* (and the path is considered invalid). -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
