Re: Problem with parent-pom and referencing version classifier

[Nick Stolwijk <ni...@gmail.com>]

A dependency is identified by three things: groupId, artifactId and
classifier. Only the version is configured by dependencyManagement. So
you can say: I want this artifact (groupId, artifactId, classifier)
and let my parent decide which version I get.
