             Summary: Go-offline does not find module dependencies in multi-module build.
                 Key: MDEP-516
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-516
             Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Petar Tahchiev


Hello,

I've recently hit the exact same problem that these guys are having:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14694139/how-to-resolve-dependencies-between-modules-within-multi-module-project

and I thought it must be a very normal scenario so probably a lot of other people are hitting.

So basically I have a multi-module build where {{moduleA}} is built first and them {{moduleB}} depends on {{moduleA}}. However when I do {{mvn dependency:go-offline}} it comes to resolve the dependencies of {{moduleB}} and it fails with {{Artifact not found: moduleA}}. 

That seems to happen because only modules that have been packaged are put in the reactor and so later modules will know about them. So to fix it I have to do the following:
{code}
mvn package dependency:go-offline -U -Pquick,test -DskipTests -s src/main/resources/settings.xml
{code}

which I really don't like, because it does an extra package that I don't need, and then the whole build gets a lot slower.
