Ernst Lindoorn commented on MECLIPSE-293:
-----------------------------------------
What is the reasoning behind looking through the project dependencies for
specifically named artifacts, to resolve versions of java ee / ejb and such?
Wouldn't it be preferable to have versions definable/overridable in the pom?
i.e. There is no documentation on which dependencies are necessary to get i.e.
a jsf.ejb version 3;
It turns out you need either an artifact named ejb, geronimo-spec-ejb or
geronimo-ejb_3.0_spec with the proper version or if none of those exist you see
if javaee-api, j2ee or geronimo-spec-j2ee is version 5.0.
The above mechanism doesn't seem very robust. You noticed that the version of
javaee-api is 5 instead of 5.0, what happens if someone releases 5.1? Or when a
user creates a conflicting artifact?

> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-293
> Project: Maven 2.x Eclipse Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: WTP support
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Thierry Levieux
> Assignee: Arnaud Heritier
>
> The javaee-api artifact version is 5 (See
> http://weblogs.java.net/blog/ludo/archive/2007/01/java_ee_5_apis.html),
> whereas eclipse/wtp and maven eclipse only recognizes 5.0 as a valid version.
> I think the pom version is not consistent (for instance, glassfish V3 build
> project uses 5.0 as artifact version),
> but WE NEED a way/workaround to resolve correctly that library version.
> I plan to contact Ludovic Champenois (project-owner) and check if he's
> confortable with the javaee-api version...
> Thanks
