[jira] Commented: (MNG-4453) [regression] Plugin versions defined in a lifecycle mapping are not respected

["Brian Fox (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4453?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=198582#action_198582 ] 

Brian Fox commented on MNG-4453:
--------------------------------

Personally I didn't even know you could put a version into the lifecycle, I've never seen that done.

Second, I always subscribe to the theory that "closest" wins. In the inheritance case, it means things in my pom override my parent pom, which overrides the grandparent etc. I think in this case, the pom is "closer" than the lifecycle and therefore it should win as is happening in the 3.x case. In otherwords, if I use a lifecycle that defines a version but need to tweak the version how would I do it? The pom is my only vechicle for overriding it.

> As reported by Sebastian Annies in [Using a specific plugin version in custom lifecycle|http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@maven.apache.org/msg82871.html], the plugin version given by a lifecycle mapping like
> {code:xml}
> <verify>org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-source-plugin:2.1:jar-no-fork</verify>
> {code}
> is not respected by Maven 3.0, it's preferring the version from the plugin management of the super POM instead.
