Broken dependency in Maven repo?

[Jim Garrison <Ji...@troux.com>]

I have a project with a dependency on  activemq.  During the build, this
activemq dependency seems to introduce a dependency on javacc with what
looks like a bad version number, which cannot be located and breaks the
build.  Here's the output:

 

Missing:

----------

1) javacc:javacc:jar:${javacc_version}

 

  Try downloading the file manually from the project website.

 

  Then, install it using the command: 

      mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javacc -DartifactId=javacc
-Dversion=${javacc_version} -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file

 

  Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file
there: 

      mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=javacc -DartifactId=javacc
-Dversion=${javacc_version} -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
-Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]

 

  Path to dependency: 

        1) com.troux:platform:jar:1.0

        2) activemq:activemq-core:jar:4.0-M3

        3) javacc:javacc:jar:${javacc_version}

 

 

Does this represent a problem with the deployed activemq-core POM in the
Maven repo?

Jim,

Looking at central repository, the pom provided by
activemq:activemq-core:4.0-M3 seems to require some more information, like
versions of dependencies. So you have two choices:
1. to provide all these information (for all packages listed in [1]) through
-D parameter in command line (ex: mvn clean install
-Dcommons_pool_version=1.4 -Dactivecluster_version=X.X (and so on...) );
2. modify pom.xml of activemq:activemq-core:4.0-M3 in your local repository
adding a properties section with all variables, ex:
  <properties>
    <commons_beanutils_version>X.X</commons_beanutils_version>
    <activecluster_version>Y.Y</activecluster_version>
    <!-- all others here -->
  </properties>
In this case, you will not to write all parameters in command line.

However, the version you are using is a milestone version. Do you really
need to use exactly this? Since there's released versions on
org.apache.activemq:activemq-core (like 4.1.1), which dependencies are fully
resolved.
