[jira] Resolved: (BUILDR-206) transitive method does not work for projects

["Assaf Arkin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-206?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Assaf Arkin resolved BUILDR-206.
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Invalid

The spec says "transitive should accept project and return all its packaging tasks", and it passes.  Buildr 1.3.x packages do not contain more information than that, transitive dependency support is planned for 1.4.  1.4 will likely not use the transitive method, so not adding spec to transitive.

> when passing a Project object to #transitive it matches the Project clause in 'case' , it then calls itself recursively with the packages of the project. these fall in the 'when Rake::Task' clause. If they are "spec" packages,  the method again recursively calls itself. this time the clause is /([^:]+:){2,4}/ which then tries to load the pom from the repository. there's no reason why there will be a pom there.  if the packages are 'file' packages, they are used as-is.
> in both cases, there is no transitivity of dependencies. 
> suggestion:
> * add :project attribute to package tasks
> * in Rake::Task clause, if the artifact responds to :project, then call recursively with the project
> * in Project clause, add the packages to the result set and call recursively with spec.compile.dependencies (which can then be artifacts or packages)
