4.0.0-rc-5

Notes

This new release candidate of Maven 4 is released to get feedback from users.
Maven 4 has a restrained a few things comparent to Maven 3, so make sure to run the mvnup tool before trying to project with Maven 4.

Bean configuration bug

A bug has been found in the bean configuration system where field accessibility state is cached globally. This can cause plugin configuration injection to fail when the same configuration field is accessed multiple times or in different contexts during a build. This particularly affects the plugin unit tests.

This will be fixed by #11433 in the next release.

Concurrency issue in the v4 API

A concurrency issue has been found in the Maven 4 API (still in preview mode) and will be fixed by #11428 in the next release.

BOM packaging

Another bug has been found in how BOM projects are processed. When a project uses BOM packaging, the consumer POM is not being properly converted to standard POM packaging, and dependency versions could be lost in some cases.

This will be fixed by #11427 in the next release.

macOS: JLine native library may be blocked by Gatekeeper on first use

On macOS (especially Apple Silicon), the first invocation of mvn may fail to load the JLine native terminal library with an error such as:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: .../libjline-native/Mac/arm64/libjlinenative.jnilib: dlopen(...): code signature ... not valid for use in process: library load disallowed by system policy

This occurs when the binary distribution is downloaded via a web browser, which applies the com.apple.quarantine extended attribute.

Workaround (one-time fix):

xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/apache-maven-4.0.0-rc-5/lib/jline-native

Recommended download method (avoids the issue entirely):

curl -L -O https://archive.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-4/4.0.0-rc-5/binaries/apache-maven-4.0.0-rc-5-bin.tar.gz
tar -xzf apache-maven-4.0.0-rc-5-bin.tar.gz

This is a known issue #10747 and will be addressed in a future release.

Maven 4.0.0-rc-3

Release notes

Maven has entered the release candidate phase and aims to be finally released in a few weeks. Please give it a try and report errors.

Upgrading from Maven 3

Maven 4 brings a tons of changes. We've tried hard to maximise compatibility with Maven 3.x, but in order to have your build work with Maven 4, you will need to upgrade some plugins (such as maven-enforcer-plugin, maven-remote-resources-plugin, maven-shade-plugin, etc...) to their most recent versions.

If your build is leveraging Maven extensions, you may very well expect some breakage. Some extensions may need to be updated:

• the useful, but unmaintained, os-maven-plugin extension has been replaced with at nisse extension.

Contact the extensions' developers team to know their plans regarding supporting to Maven 4.

Upgrading from Maven 4.0.0-rc-2

Important note about breaking changes: Maven 4.0.0-rc-3 includes changes in the new API that will require updates in plugin targeting the new API, especially relating to [MNG-8395] which adds a new <source> element to the model and redirects the <sourceDirectory> element. Plugin developers will need to update their code to work with these changes.
