Artifacts with invalid id can be deployed with deploy:deploy-file. ------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MDEPLOY-88 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEPLOY-88 Project: Maven 2.x Deploy Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.4 Reporter: Joerg Schaible Real world example: WebLogic delivers webserviceclient+ssl.jar. It is no problem to create a POM file for this artifact with as "weblogic:webserviceclient+ssl:9.2.1.0" and deploy this with the prepared POM into the repository. It is also no problem to deploy artifacts with a prepared POM that declare a dependency to this artifact. However, if this artifact is declared as direct dependency to a project the build fails immediately with : {noformat} Validation Messages: [0] 'dependencies.dependency.artifactId' with value 'webserviceclient+ssl' does not match a valid id pattern. {noformat} and worse, if the artifact is a transitive dep, you only get a non-explaining warning and all other dependencies of the "transitive artifact" are dropped: {noformat} [WARNING] POM for 'com.company:artifact-name:pom:47.11:runtime' is invalid. It will be ignored for artifact resolution. Reason: F ailed to validate POM for project com.company:artifact-name at Artifact [com.company:artifact-name:pom:47.11:runtime] {noformat} The deploy plugin has to validate the (also a generated) POM before deploying an artifact with deploy:deploy-file. BTW: I suppose the install plugin has the same issue with install:install-file. However, I also suppose the code is shared ;-) -- 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
