[jira] [Created] (MNG-5818) Disallow plugins from programmatically adding dependencies to projects

Jason van Zyl created MNG-5818:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Disallow plugins from programmatically adding dependencies to projects
                 Key: MNG-5818
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5818
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Jason van Zyl
            Assignee: Jason van Zyl


MavenProject.setDependencyArtifacts(deps) is publicly available to plugins that can alter the classpath non-declaratively. For compatibility reasons in MNG-4363 we restored this capability for the cobertura-maven-plugin but it needs to be removed. It causes some nasty logic in the core, but it being non-delclarative and magical is the real problem.

We need to deprecate MavenProject.setDependencyArtifacts(deps), and replace the logic for constructing the artifacts in a better. Preferably passing in the artifacts in the constructor of MavenProject.
