Joseph Marques commented on MNG-3690: ------------------------------------- ok, i finally found some time to get back to this. when i tried to extract a minimalistic project hierarchy that reproduced this bug, i didn't encounter the bug anymore. so, in a relatively clean setup without many other things going on the poms, things work as intended and properties are cascaded down to the nested modules as long as the parent info is set properly. but there definitely is an issue in one of the projects i use maven for, so i'm going to continue investigating and will post back when i pinpoint what the issue is (and attached a project demonstrating it). > inheriting properties doesn't work if name of property is too long > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-3690 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3690 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Inheritance and Interpolation > Affects Versions: 2.0.9 > Reporter: Joseph Marques > > when i used a property that was 30 characters long, it wasn't propagated. > when i shortened it to only be 20, it worked. i don't know what the limit > is, but this was a very sly bug. -- 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
