[MNG-8709] Maven 4.0 erroneously reports it cannot resolve a dependency version from a property #10379
Description
Jack Green opened MNG-8709 and commented
Take a pom.xml where the version of a dependency is set via a property within a profile:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.me</groupId> <artifactId>maven-4-test</artifactId> <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version> <profiles> <profile> <id>spring-6</id> <activation> <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault> </activation> <properties> <org.springframework.version>6.2.0</org.springframework.version> </properties> </profile> </profiles> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> </dependencies></project>This works fine in {}Maven 3.9.9 (8e8579a9e76f7d015ee5ec7bfcdc97d260186937){}, but in {}Maven 4.0.0-rc-3 (3952d00ce65df6753b63a51e86b1f626c55a8df2){}, clean install fails with:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:3.1.3:install (default-install) on project maven-4-test: Execution default-install of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:3.1.3:install failed: org.apache.maven.api.services.ModelBuilderException: 1 problem was for com.me:maven-4-test:jar:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT
[ERROR] - [ERROR] 'dependencies.dependency.version' for org.springframework:spring-context:jar must be a valid version but is '${org.springframework.version}'. @ line 24, column 13
I believe this to be a bug because if you query other ways it shows the version is being resolved:
{}help:evaluate -Dexpression=org.springframework.version{}:
6.2.0 {}help:effective-pom{}:
<properties>
{...}
<project.reporting.outputEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.outputEncoding>
</properties>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
<version>6.2.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
Affects: 4.0.0-rc-3
