Description
When invoking the 'mvn compile' command and a profile is active, defined in settings.xml, a variable substitution is not performed in a transitive dependency.
In the example provided the project to be built, C, depends on B which in its turn depends on A. The versions of B and A to be used are defined in a profile, the POM-files defines a variable indicating the versions. The profile in question is defined in the settings.xml and is always active (check with command 'mvn help:active-profiles'). The results of project A and B are successfully built and installed in the local repository.
Invoking a build for project C using a command line parameter indicating, 'mvn compile -Dparentversion=0.0.1-SNAPSHOT, the versions render a successful build. The transitive dependency is resolved correctly.
This problem is also visible in Eclipse, m2eclipse, as the project C in the example provided, does not build (error indication). The example provided includes Eclipse projects displaying this (version 0.9.7.20081001-2217 of the Eclipse plugin is used).
The settings.xml and a build log are provided as attachments to this issue.
