Herve Boutemy commented on ARCHETYPE-351:
-----------------------------------------
I just had a look at the case and confirm this is a stupid bug: automatic
catalog retrieval overrides version searched for...
> Maven central is not used for archetype repository anymore
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARCHETYPE-351
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-351
> Project: Maven Archetype
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Generator
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Environment: OS X, maven 3.
> Reporter: Ronny Løvtangen
>
> In maven 2.2.1, the following command would create a Grails 1.3.4 project,
> using the archetype at
> http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/grails/grails-maven-archetype/1.3.4/
> {code}
> mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.grails \
> -DarchetypeArtifactId=grails-maven-archetype \
> -DarchetypeVersion=1.3.4 \
> -DgroupId=example -DartifactId=my-app
> {code}
> In maven 3, this doesn't happen, and a Grails 1.2.0 project is created
> instead, causing confusion.
> {code}
> [INFO] Archetype repository missing. Using the one from
> [org.grails:grails-maven-archetype:1.2.0] found in catalog remote
> {code}
> This single line output is easily overlooked.
> Adding -DarchetypeRepository=http://repo1.maven.org/maven2 does the trick in
> maven 3, but I expected maven central to be default enabled?
> One of the features of maven 3 is backward compatibility with maven 2. Is
> this change intentional?
> I think the command should fail when the explicit given version is not found,
> not just use an old version.
> And maven central should be used like in maven 2, to preserve backwards
> compatibility, and support 'principle of least surprise' as maven central is
> default enabled for other dependencies.
