> Project: Ivy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.4.1
> Environment: all
> Reporter: John Williams
> Assigned To: Xavier Hanin
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.5
>
> Attachments: IVY-383-breadth-first-resolve.patch,

>
> LatestRevisionStrategy seems to compare both revision numbers and revision
> number patterns, but the implementation of patterns broken. For instance,
> patterns like "1.0+" are treated specially, but patterns like "[1.0,)" are
> treated like literal revision numbers! I have a case in which this causes
> conflict resolution to produce incorrect results. I'll hopefully be posting
> a patch soon to fix the particular resolution problem I've found, but I'm
> suspicious that there are other cases in which patterns are erroneously
> passed to LatestRevisionStrategy.
