IDEA-43111

Parent POM properties are not working in child POM's

PomProblemSample.zip (11 KB)

If you have a project (very simple example attached) that uses properties in the parent POM to set the version in dependency management and then use these dependencies in child POMs (this is a common pattern used by Spring, Tapestry, Jetty and many other projects) it can't resolve the property.

This worked in 7.0.2.

To reproduce open attached project POM into IntelliJ

Issue was resolved

I have created a test case and logged this with the maven embedder project - http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3479

While doing the test case I have proven this works correctly with JAR type dependencies but not POM type dependencies. So a hack to fix is to copy the offending pom, change it to type jar and it will work.
