"legacy" repositories are silently treated as "default" repositories?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4714
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4714
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Artifacts and Repositories
Affects Versions: 3.0-beta-1
Reporter: Marc Wirth
Priority: Minor
Attachments: pom.xml
Support for legacy repositories was removed for http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4204 but
if you now try to build something were an artifact exists only on a "legacy" repository the
build will warn:
[WARNING] 'repositories.repository.layout' for maven-repository.dev.java.net uses the deprecated
value 'legacy'. @
...
[WARNING] For this reason, future Maven versions might no longer support building such malformed
projects
but then the build just fails with a missing artifact message.
Class org.apache.maven.repository.legacy.LegacyRepositorySystem has explicitly:
public ArtifactRepository createArtifactRepository( String repositoryId, String url, ArtifactRepositoryLayout
repositoryLayout, ArtifactRepositoryPolicy snapshots, ArtifactRepositoryPolicy releases )
{
if ( repositoryLayout == null )
{
repositoryLayout = layouts.get( "default" );
}
...
}
So while the LegacyRepositoryLayout does not exist anymore, Maven will treat the repository
as Default-Repository and of course fail to find something.
>From my point of view the Warning at the beginning should rather be an error. The reference
to "future" versions is also quite misleading as the support was already removed in the current
version (-> org.apache.maven.model.validation.DefaultModelValidator#validateRepository
reports that violation).
What's the intended behaviour here?
