version expression constant
---------------------------
Key: MNG-4715
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4715
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Apache or Maven Parent poms, Dependencies, POM
Affects Versions: 3.0-beta-1, 3.0-alpha-7, 3.0-alpha-6
Environment: eclipse linux xp
Reporter: Faruk
Priority: Critical
Attachments: untitled.JPG
early versions, we define modules versions with expressions, and set them to
the parent pom,
simply;
<properties>
<ibb-core-cache.version>1.0.1</ibb-core-cache.version>
<ibb-core-util.version>1.0.1</ibb-core-util.version>
</properties>
and then, we give this property to modules pom as expression ,
<name>ik-plug</name>
<packaging>jar</packaging>
<version>${ibb-core-util.versionn}</version>
but know , it gives an error you know like this,
"[WARNING] Some problems were encountered while building the effective model
for ibb-parent:ibb-modules-parent:pom:1.0.0
[WARNING] 'version' contains an expression but should be a constant. @
ibb-parent:ibb-modules-parent:${ibb-core-jars.version},
C:\dev\ibb\workspace\core\ibb-modules-parent\pom.xml
"
but I think that, this enhancement is causes wrong result,
think that , if we have i project already developing about 3 years, this
project has a lot of modules, and this modules have sub modules , and this sub
modules already bound to some other modules not define in your pom, but your
updates must be affect them, at this situation, developer want to write the
existing version numbers with properties to parent pom, and want to manage them
like this. at the attach file below , the close projects are belongs to open
projects, but they are the different team developing this. I cant force the
other developers to cache their versions, I must use this versions as initial
step
