[jira] Updated: (MEV-459) Velocity should not depend on Velocity-dep

["Carlos Sanchez (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV-459?page=all ]

Carlos Sanchez updated MEV-459:
-------------------------------

    Summary: Velocity should not depend on Velocity-dep  (was: Velocity-dep includes Apache ORO thus clashing with ORO dependency)

So the problm is that Velocity should not depend on Velocity-dep and add all the dependencies in velocity.
You'd need to explicitly exclude velocity-dep until the velocity guys release a new version with the right pom.

> If a project is using ORO in version 2.0.8 then velocity-dep clashes with it as it includes ORO with the original package name (a really really bad practice). 
> For information, the problem arises for example with Perl5Substitution.appendSubstitution(java.lang.StringBuffer stringBuffer, org.apache.oro.text.regex.MatchResult matchResult, int i, java.lang.String string, org.apache.oro.text.regex.PatternMatcher patternMatcher, org.apache.oro.text.regex.Pattern pattern) which is valid in ORO 2.0.8 but not in the version inside velocity-dep.
> This problem should be raised against the Velocity project as it should not be allowed to internally include another external package.
