Régis Décamps commented on MNG-3814: ------------------------------------ The problem occurs with any type of dependency. It can be a plugin dependency or a dependency. My project fails because module-1.1 (uses plugin)-> plugin-1.0 (which depends on)-> module-1.0 > Reactor builds fail due to erroneous cycle in project sorting which does not > consider versions > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-3814 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3814 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Reactor and workspace > Affects Versions: 2.0.9, 2.1.0-M1, 3.0-alpha-1 > Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann > > Just to officially track the reason why the parent POM {{maven-plugins}} > currently excludes the maven-project-info-reports-plugin from the reactor: > {noformat} > [INFO] Scanning for projects... > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] The projects in the reactor contain a cyclic reference: > Edge between > 'Vertex{label='org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-remote-resources-plugin'}' > and > 'Vertex{label='org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-project-info-reports-plugin'}' > introduces to cycle in the graph > org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-project-info-reports-plugin --> > org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-remote-resources-plugin --> > org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-project-info-reports-plugin > {noformat} > It appears the {{ProjectSorter}} does not take versions into account, i.e. > there is no cycle in a multi-module scenario like this: > {noformat} > parent:1 > - plugin-a:2.0 which uses plugin-b:1.0 > - plugin-b:2.0 which uses plugin-a:1.0 > {noformat} -- 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
