Ben Dean updated MNG-3939:
--------------------------
Attachment: console_output.txt
I've attached the console output from doing a mvn clean install on the
non-working version of the project.
Also, the working and non-working versions of the example project are committed
as separate zip files.
> dependencyManagement does not inherit imported dependencies
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-3939
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3939
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Dependencies
> Affects Versions: 2.0.9
> Reporter: Ben Dean
> Attachments: console_output.txt,
> maven-dependency-inherited-import.not-working.zip,
> maven-dependency-inherited-import.working.zip

> I've attached a zip that has two versions of the same multi-module project.
> In the first version there is a parent-pom which defines a
> dependencyManagement section with one dependency (junit 4.4). I child project
> then inherits from the parent-pom and inherits the dependency management
> section including the version number for junit. Then then child project can
> have a dependency for junit and not care about the version number which is
> managed by the dependencyManagement inherited from the parent.
> In the second version, the dependencyManagement of the parent has been moved
> to a dependency-pom. This makes sense because the dependencyManagement
> section for a multi-module project could get huge and it would be nice to
> keep the parent-pom small and clean and just import dependencyManagement as
> needed. The problem is that the child project does not inherit these imported
> dependencies. It seems to me that imported dependencyManagement sections
> should be inherited too. This is the error given when the child doesn't what
> version of junit to use:
> Project ID: maven.dependency.example:child
> POM Location: C:\sandbox\eclipse\default\maven example\child\pom.xml
> Validation Messages:
> [0] 'dependencies.dependency.version' is missing for junit:junit
> This is somewhat related (maybe only tangentially) to the following issues:
> http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3553
> http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2314
> http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3537
> maybe more ...
> However, all those other issues seem to involve a more complex example than
> this issue. This issue is just dependencyManagement, import and inheritance.
