[jira] Closed: (MNG-5062) Dependency resolution in multimodule project with child having different groupId

["Benjamin Bentmann (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5062?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Benjamin Bentmann closed MNG-5062.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Bug
      Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann

Expressions referring to {{project.*}} are evaluated against the project that is to be built, not the POM that declared them originally. I.e. child2 inherits the dependency management from its parent but uses the groupId of child2 to evaluate the expressions, yielding effectively:
{code:xml}
<dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.example.other</groupId>
      <artifactId>child</artifactId>
      <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </dependency>
{code}
.

> I don't know if this is as user or maven error but I'll report it any way. 
> Dependency resolution does not work correctly when child project references a dependency defined in parent's dependencyManagement if childs groupId is not same as parents.

> It works if hard coded groupId instead of ${project.groupId} is used in the parent.
> Attached is a sample project that demonstrates the problem.
