I'm trying to resolve mdep-50. Inside the dependency plugin, I use
public Artifact createArtifact( String groupId, String artifactId,
String version, String scope, String type )
to create the artifact. I pass in the range from the plugin
configuration ( [3.7,4.0) for example ) directly to this method without
any preprocessing. This method seems to eventually check the version:
DefaultArtifactFactory line 103:
VersionRange versionRange = null;
if ( version != null )
{
versionRange = VersionRange.createFromVersion( version );
}
return createArtifact( groupId, artifactId, versionRange, type,
classifier, scope, inheritedScope );
After creating this artifact, I call resolver.resolve( artifact,
remoteRepos, local ); (resolver,remoteRepos and local are injected by
maven)
The trouble is, that is appears the version was never handled properly:
Downloading:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/junit/junit/[3.7,4.0)/junit-[3.7,4.0)
.jar
[WARNING] Unable to get resource from repository central

Reason: Unable to download the artifact from any repository
Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=junit -DartifactId=junit \
-Dversion=[3.7,4.0) -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
junit:junit:jar:[3.7,4.0)
from the specified remote repositories:
Maven Snapshots (http://people.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository),
central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2),
Codehaus Snapshots (http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/maven2/)
Is this a known issue that you can't resolve a version range dynamically
or did I just plain miss a step?
Thanks,
Brian
