Wrong spring-context version resolved when depending on artifact with dependency management and jersey-spring dependency ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4821 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4821 Project: Maven 2 & 3 Issue Type: Bug Components: Dependencies Affects Versions: 2.2.1 Environment: Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit, jdk6 Windows 7 64-bit, Cygwin, jdk6 Windows XP SP3 32-bit, Cygwin, jdk5 Reporter: Ryan Stewart Attachments: dependency-versions.zip Given two artifacts, A and B: - A depends on B and on org.springframework:spring-context:3.0.1.RELEASE - B depends on com.sun.jersey.contribs:jersey-spring:1.2 and has a dependency management entry that sets the version for org.springframework:spring-context to 3.0.2.RELEASE - com.sun.jersey.contribs:jersey-spring:1.2 depends on org.springframework:spring-context:[2.5.2,3) When B is built, maven uses org.springframework:spring-context:jar:3.0.2.RELEASE, as expected. When A is built, maven 2 uses org.springframework:spring-context:jar:2.5.6, and maven 3 uses version 2.5.6.SEC02. I'm attaching a sample project that demonstrates the bug. There are two poms: dependent and dependee. These correspond to A and B above, respectively. The top-level pom just includes the other two for ease of building. In the real-life situation where I found the problem, the two artifacts are from separate projects. There is no unit test, since I don't even know how I'd write a test for this, but there is a bash script called test.sh that checks for the problem. -- 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
