Paul Benedict updated MNG-4223: ------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: Issues to be reviewed for 3.x) > Resolve expressions in POM artifact coordinates > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-4223 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4223 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Bug > Components: POM > Affects Versions: 2.2.0 > Reporter: John Casey > > See: > http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Artifact-Coordinate+Expression+Transformation > See also: MNG-3057, MNG-4167 > We need to resolve artifact coordinates in the POM, including project > coordinate, dependencies, plugins, reports, etc. but NOT plugin configuration > sections. These coordinates need to be resolved prior to plugins like GPG > being executed, and prior to install/deploy steps, to ensure that signatures > and derivatives (shade plugin output, for instance), along with installed and > deployed copies, contain resolved values. > We attempted this for version expressions in 2.1.0, but this had several > problems, including not being in place for plugin executions, and resolving > version expressions within plugin configurations. When we tried to remedy > this in 2.2.0, a bunch of more subtle issues sprang up, which are described > in the link at the top of this description. In short, we can't really solve > this adequately in 2.2.0 without performing major surgery, and even then I'm > not sure it'd work. We need to consider this as a design requirement for > Maven 3.x, where we can design it into the system instead of trying to > retrofit... -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.6#6162)
