[jira] Commented: (MENFORCER-19) Add an option to enforce dependencyManagement

["Joe Littlejohn (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MENFORCER-19?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=257282#action_257282 ] 

Joe Littlejohn commented on MENFORCER-19:
-----------------------------------------

Nicolas, I notice that with the previous comment you marked this as WontFix. It seems like it would be nice to add a new enforcer rule based on the maven-dependency-plugin:analyze-dep-mgt (as suggested by Brian and jieryn above).

This would be a useful rule which could be available and documented without having to use the above workaround.

> Add something to the dependencyManagement section like 
> <enforce>true</enforce>
> to make build fail if a subproject uses a different version
> Currently a subproject can specify the version of a dependency already defined in dependencyManagement, which is error prone
