Developing a Grails 1.3.7 web app; it depends on a plugin which depends on another plugin, the diagram below illustrates the dependency configuration.
The problem is the WAR file; I'm using the standard grails war command, but the classes for core-plugin are not packaged in the war; the artifacts for webutil-plugin, however, are present. I double-checked Artifactory, no issues with the repository. One thing I noticed in the WAR build output was...the webutil plugin is pulled from the repo first, then the WAR is packaged, then, the core plugin is pulled and copied to my local grails/ivy repo. Not sure why this is happening, could it be because the web app implicitly depends on core through webutil?
Was able to get around this by adding both plugins to web apps
BuildConfig, although this is not ideal since it results in a redundant configuration. Still not sure why the implicit dependency doesn't work.
