Question
I'm trying to make Maven use a specific version of findbugs
when running
mvn findbugs:findbugs
It seems to ignore whatever version I set inside the POM. I tried running it using just a test POM:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>com.test</groupId>
<artifactId>test</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
</project>
-which just seems to use findbugs version 2.5.2 by default. Where did this version come from?
