[jira] Created: (MNG-3690) inheriting properties doesn't work if
name of property is too long
inheriting properties doesn't work if name of property is too long
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3690
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3690
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Inheritance and Interpolation
Affects Versions: 2.0.9
Reporter: Joseph Marques
when i used a property that was 30 characters long, it wasn't propagated. when i shortened it to only be 20, it worked. i don't know what the limit is, but this was a very sly bug.

-------------------------------------
sure, i'll see what i can pull together over the weekend. in the meantime, i'll tell you that I don't use the relativePath element explicitly in any of my poms, so it should default to "../pom.xml"
from my testing, what i'm seeing happening is that it's someone reference an only version of the parent pom.xml. if i "mvn -N install" the parent, then the child will see the updated value.
thanks in advance.

-------------------------------------
hmm...investigating more into this it appears it might have to do with weird caching. if i just change the value of some property at some parent-parent pom.xml, the new value does not trickle down if i try to execute "mvn" from the child level. i need to path up to the ancestor, build "mvn -N install" from there, and then go back down to the child. this makes using properties set at parent levels rather clunky. i want to be able to change the property at a parent level, and have that take immediate effect if i execute from any child module. is there a way to enable this?

-------------------------------------
ok, i finally found some time to get back to this. when i tried to extract a minimalistic project hierarchy that reproduced this bug, i didn't encounter the bug anymore. so, in a relatively clean setup without many other things going on the poms, things work as intended and properties are cascaded down to the nested modules as long as the parent info is set properly. but there definitely is an issue in one of the projects i use maven for, so i'm going to continue investigating and will post back when i pinpoint what the issue is (and attached a project demonstrating it).

-------------------------------------
fyi, i'm referring to length of the property NAME not the property value.

----------------------------------------
bq. i want to be able to change the property at a parent level, and have that take immediate effect if i execute from any child module. is there a way to enable this?
In principal it should be possible: Maven tries to look up parent POMs from the local filesystem by following the module's [{{<relativePath>}}|http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.0.8/maven-model/maven.html#class_parent] element (of course, the version of the parent POM found at this location must match the version specified in the child or Maven continues the search in the repos).
Can you provide a test project that demonstrates your issues?

-------------------------------------
i use "mvn help:effective-pom" to confirm that this property was *NOT* passed when it was 30 chars, and that things *DID* work when the length shrank to 20 chars.
