Artifacts with invalid id can be deployed with deploy:deploy-file.
------------------------------------------------------------------

          Key: MDEPLOY-88
          URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEPLOY-88
        Project: Maven 2.x Deploy Plugin
      Issue Type: Bug
  Affects Versions: 2.4
       Reporter: Joerg Schaible


Real world example: WebLogic delivers webserviceclient+ssl.jar.

It is no problem to create a POM file for this artifact with as "weblogic:webserviceclient+ssl:9.2.1.0" and deploy this with the prepared POM into the repository. It is also no problem to deploy artifacts with a prepared POM that declare a dependency to this artifact. However, if this artifact is declared as direct dependency to a project the build fails immediately with :

{noformat}
Validation Messages:

  [0] 'dependencies.dependency.artifactId' with value 'webserviceclient+ssl' does not match a valid id pattern.
{noformat}

and worse, if the artifact is a transitive dep, you only get a non-explaining warning and all other dependencies of the "transitive artifact" are dropped:

{noformat}
[WARNING] POM for 'com.company:artifact-name:pom:47.11:runtime' is invalid. It will be ignored for artifact resolution. Reason: F
ailed to validate POM for project com.company:artifact-name at Artifact [com.company:artifact-name:pom:47.11:runtime]
{noformat}

The deploy plugin has to validate the (also a generated) POM before deploying an artifact with deploy:deploy-file.

BTW: I suppose the install plugin has the same issue with install:install-file. However, I also suppose the code is shared ;-)
