Issue with properties inherited from parent POM
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-5099
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5099
             Project: Maven 2 & 3
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Inheritance and Interpolation
    Affects Versions: 3.0.3
         Environment: java 1.6.0_24
            Reporter: Dan Checkoway


This worked absolutely fine in 2.2.1.  Fails in 3.0.3.

./deps/pom.xml has:
  <properties>
    <mysql.connector.version>5.1.16</mysql.connector.version>
  </properties>


./library/pom.xml has:
  <parent>
    <groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
    <artifactId>base</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
    <relativePath>../deps/pom.xml</relativePath>
  </parent>
...
    <dependency>
      <groupId>mysql</groupId>
      <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
      <version>${mysql.connector.version}</version>
      <scope>runtime</scope>
    </dependency>


./otherlib/pom.xml has:
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
      <artifactId>mycompany-library</artifactId>
      <version>1.0</version>
      <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>


cd library
mvn deploy (all good)

cd otherlib
mvn compile (fails)

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project mycompany-otherlib: Could not resolve 
dependencies for project com.mycompany:mycompany-otherlib:jar:1.0: Failure to 
find mysql:mysql-connector-java:jar:${mysql.connector.version} in 
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution 
will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or 
updates are forced -> [Help 1]

It's as if it's treating the ${mysql.connector.version} in the runtime 
dependency literally, instead of resolving that property.

I can work around this by adding this to library/pom.xml:
  <properties>
    <mysql.connector.version>5.1.16</mysql.connector.version>
  </properties>

Please let me know if I'm missing something simple, but it worked fine without 
the workaround in 2.2.1, and this looks like a bug to me!
