[jira] Created: (MNG-3825) Dependencies with classifier should not always require a version.

Dependencies with classifier should not always require a version.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-3825
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3825
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Dependencies
            Reporter: Paul Gier


If I have two dependencies one with a classifier and one without, that look something like this:
{code:xml}
<dependency>
  <groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
  <artifactId>project1</artifact>
  <version>1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
  <artifactId>project1</artifact>
  <classifier>client</classifier>
  <version>1</version>
</dependency>
{code}

Currently I need to specify versions for both of them.  If I specify the versions in dependency management, I should only have to specify the non-classifier version.  The dependency with the classifier should default to the same version as the one without the dependency.  This would save a lot of extra configuration for some projects.

on second thought, best to keep the request as is and look at it in context with the other issues :)

[jira] Closed: (MNG-3825) Dependencies with classifier should not always require a version.

Brett Porter closed MNG-3825.
-----------------------------

       Resolution: Won't Fix
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 2.x)

I'm going to say this is not something we'd do as stated, but probably a good piece of input to a more concise dependency format (eg, grouping as mentioned above). That's something to consider for 3.1.

If you disagree, we can reopen and work through it on dev@

    Fix Version/s: 2.x

could consider this with dependency grouping discussion for an alternate POM format
