Links to Inherited site menus appear to be broken
-------------------------------------------------
Key: MSITE-499
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-499
Project: Maven 2.x Site Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: relative links, site descriptor
Affects Versions: 2.1.1
Environment: Maven 2.2.1,
Reporter: Mykel Alvis
All site descriptors within the several hundred projects I manage are based on
a "base" value provided by a property in settings.xml.
My hierarchy is
<superpom>
\- CommonParentPOM
+--Group1ParentPOM
+--Group2ParentPOM
\-- Group2project
My CommonParentPOM has a <url> that is defined as:
{noformat}
<url>${default.site.view}/${artifact.namespace}</url>
{noformat}
default.site.view is specified in settings.xml
artifact.namespace is basically
${repo.namespace}/${project.artifactId}-${project.version}, where
repo.namespace is defined in CommonParentPOM as
<repo.namespace>common</repo.namespace>
Thus, my final realized URL for CommonParentPOM generally looks like
"http://documentation.ainom.net/documentation/m2-sites/common/CommonParentPOM-20-SNAPSHOT
for version 20-SNAPSHOT of CommonParentPOM.
CommonParentPOM has a menu that I want propagated to all sub-projects, so I
have a menu in CommonParentPOM's site.xml as
{noformat}
<menu name="CM" inherit="bottom">
<item name="Releases" href="cm_releases.html" />
</menu>
{noformat}
For a subproject whose direct parent is CommonParentPOM and who redfines their
object.namespace to be xyzabc, in the generated index.html, I get CM as an
inherited menu with the "Releases" anchor's HREF set to:
{{home/mykel/Work/site-test/test1/$%257Bdefault.site.view%257D/common/CommonParentPOM-20-SNAPSHOT/cm_releases.html}}
It appears that the site plugin appended the path to *my filesystem's working
directory* and then appended the *unrealized* link to the originally deployed
site file that was inherited. What I expected was a fully realized URL from
the parent project's site deployment, in this case
http://documentation.ainom.net/documentation/m2-sites/common/CommonParentPOM-20-SNAPSHOT/cm_releases.html
