[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JBRULES-3548) Easy version bumping during release procedure: Fix script update-version-all.sh

Easy version bumping during release procedure: Fix script update-version-all.sh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-3548 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-3548 Project: Drools Issue Type: Task Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: All Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet Assignee: Geoffrey De Smet Priority: Critical During a release of droolsjbpm (= droolsjbpm-knowledge, drools, jbpm, guvnor, drools-planner, droolsjbpm-tools, ...) we follow this release procedure: https://github.com/droolsjbpm/droolsjbpm-build-bootstrap/blob/master/READ... At one point we call this script to update the version number: https://github.com/droolsjbpm/droolsjbpm-build-bootstrap/blob/master/scri... That script does several calls like this: {code} mvn -Dfull versions:update-parent -N -DparentVersion=$newVersion -DallowSnapshots=true {code} Which use the versions-maven-plugin's goal update-parent: http://mojo.codehaus.org/versions-maven-plugin/update-parent-mojo.html Which does not work as expected: It always updates to the latest, highest parent version, ignoring the parameter. For example: If ($newVersion == 5.3.2.Final) but 5.4.0.Final exists in the repositories, it uses 5.4.0.Final. This has been reported: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MVERSIONS-161 (rejected due to confusion) https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MVERSIONS-185 (open and clearer) We need to fix MVERSIONS-185, ask the versions-maven-plugin to pull the changes and get it released (Paul Gier or John Casey might be able to help there). And then upgrade the plugin version here: https://github.com/droolsjbpm/droolsjbpm-build-bootstrap/blob/master/pom....
