Snapshot dependency in released ActiveMQ 5.0.0 must be removed

[Andreas Guther <An...@markettools.com>]

I moved this morning to ActiveMQ 5.0.0 and encountered problems with the
dependency on org.apache.activemq:activeio-core:jar:3.1-SNAPSHOT. This
led me to the following thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/users@activemq.apache.org/msg04738.html

 

Using the exclusion fixed my problem.  But I what I found disturbing is
the dependency of a released version on SNAPSHOTS.  This in my eyes not
acceptable and anyone who uses the Maven release process will not be
able to release the application since a build will be refused if any
SNAPSHOT dependency is detected.  This makes totally sense since a
SNAPSHOT is consider as un unstable version and as we can see might
disappear any time.

 

I think that the dependency needs to be fixed in ActiveMQ 5.0.x as soon
as possible.
