systemPath for system-scope dependencies missing in release pom
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-367
URL:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-367 Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-7
Environment: linux-x64, jdk1.6
Reporter: Andy Martin
The following dependency exists in the project POM:
<dependency>
<groupId>sun.jdk</groupId>
<artifactId>tools</artifactId>
<version>1.6.0</version>
<systemPath>${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar</systemPath>
<scope>system</scope>
</dependency>
This comes through to the release POM as:
<dependency>
<groupId>sun.jdk</groupId>
<artifactId>tools</artifactId>
<version>1.6.0</version>
<scope>system</scope>
</dependency>
Which results in a compile error as system scope requires a systemPath value. This occurs on the project with the system dependency as well as all projects which have that component as a dependency.
What is not clear in the code is that createReleaseDependencies() uses project.getArtifacts() rather than project.getDependencies(), and artifacts don't have a systemPath property. I have experimented with code to scan the dependencies for the Dependency instance matching the Artifact and getting systemPath from that, but that approach only works where it is a direct dependency, not where it is inherited.
