I'm trying to understand how Maven updates the<latest> element in maven-metadata.xml - or more specifically, why it doesn't.
Oh it does, when Maven itself needs it. It's not a general purpose feature of the metadata.
(I am aware that many are discouraging the use of LATEST when specifying dependency versions. The main reason I want to use it in this case, is to reference it for use with maven-launchpad-plugin [1]. This would allow me to have automated builds with the bleeding-edge versions of all artifacts. If there are other ways to accomplish this, I'm happy to try different approaches.)
A version range [0,) might be worth a try. Benjamin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
