             Summary: Conflicting feature pack dependency versions should not be allowed
                 Key: WFBUILD-14
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFBUILD-14
             Project: WildFly Build Tools
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: James Netherton
            Assignee: Stuart Douglas


There was a brief discussion about this on the WildFly dev mailing list so I'm capturing the problem here as well.

Consider the following.

Feature pack 'A' has a dependency on the WildFly 9 feature pack. E.g:

<dependencies>
  <artifact name="org.wildfly:wildfly-feature-pack:9.0.1.Final" />
</dependencies>

Feature pack 'B' has a dependency on the WildFly 10 feature pack and also on feature pack 'A'. E.g:

<dependencies>
  <artifact name="org.wildfly:wildfly-feature-pack:10.0.0.CR3" />
  <artifact name="org.foo:feature-pack-A" />
</dependencies>

The result is that you'll have overlapping and possibly problematic non-overlapping file paths coming from the conflicting WildFly versions

At the moment the plugins allow this scenario, which can lead to all sorts of horrors when using the server-provisioning plugin to provision an app server.
