sync to central and patched 3rd party artifacts
Hi all,
I was wondering how things are supposed to work when you have a sync to central but you relly on a patched version of a 3rd party artifact.
For example lets assume my library X depends on apache common io, and the current version has a bug that has been sitting around with a path for a while and not making it into any release.
So according to the documents normally we would download and build a patched verison of commons:commons-io and deploy it to our repo as common:commons-io:1.2.3-4_JIRA1234
Using the same Group and artifact is recommended to avoid bringin in duplicate classes is someone who consumes our lib also uses commons-io.
Anyway this is all good - but what happens if we want our artifact X synced to central - we must have all dependencies available on central but we have no sync control on commons/commons-io.
What would normally happen here?
/James

Hello,
Did you know those artifacts
http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/com/madgag/org.eclipse.jgit-parent/
There are probably some others samples :-)

Commons-io was just an example - I could just have easily said foobarwhizzylib.
Turns out the OSS product I was referening to actually deploys the patched libs under its own GAV which I missed when looking at it - so this isn’t actually an issue to me anymore.

I would do everything that I could to get this patch applied by the
dev team and have another release produced by them with this fix
included. Can you tell us the specific JIRA number which you are
referencing?
Otherwise you would follow these directions:

I *think* there is no verification that all dependencies exist in
central, so you would then put something into central that will not
work for the the end users. We've been there several times in the past
and it hasn't been a pleasant experience.
