Specifying parameters on the command-line interface using -D syntax requires
mdep refix.

Key: MDEP-216
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-216
Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: copy-dependencies
Affects Versions: 2.1, 2.0, 2.0-alpha-4, 2.0-alpha-3, 2.0-alpha-2,
2.0-alpha-1, 2.2
Environment: Maven 2.0.9, dependency plugin 2.0.
Reporter: Rob ten Hove
Assignee: Brian Fox
Priority: Minor
I used the dependency:copy-dependencies goal on the command-line, and wanted to
set the "failOnMissingClassifierArtifact" option to "false".
Command-line used:
mvn -Dclassifier=sources -DfailOnMissingClassifierArtifact=false
-DoutputDirectory=x/y/z dependency:copy-dependencies
The problem is that the "failOnMissingClassifierArtifact" remained "true". This
was also visible after running maven in debug mode. After looking in the source
code, I saw that the "failOnMissingClassifierArtifact" class field was
specified as '@parameter expression="${mdep.failOnMissingClassifierArtifact}"
default-value="true"'.
The "outputDirectory" parameter however was specified as '@parameter
expression="${outputDirectory}"
default-value="${project.build.directory}/dependency"'.
Thus, without the "mdep." prefix.
The outputDirectory worked so I changed the commandline to include the *mdep.*
prefix:
mvn -Dclassifier=sources -Dmdep.failOnMissingClassifierArtifact=false
-DoutputDirectory=x/y/z dependency:copy-dependencies
Now it worked. According to the documentation however the "mdep." prefix is not
needed, and I would find it strange if it was needed. I think this problem is
also true for other parameters, maybe even for other goals.
