Hi devs, how will Maven handle the problem of a dependency that should be used in two different versions? This applies to all project that release a new (normally major) version that can be used with the old version at the same time. This is currently possible at least with:
jmock 1.x / jmock 2.x webworks 1.x / webworks 2.x Maven supprts currently only two "versions" of sa dep if "groupId:artifactId" is different between those two versions/branches, but this might not be always the case. In Gentoo Linux such a situation is solved by introducing a "slot" indicating two different development trees that can be installed at the same time. For Maven this would mean that the separation between (main) artifacts should switch to "groupId:artifactId:slot", where slot is 0 by default Is there already a proposal or doc for such kind of functionality in a future release that I might have been missed? - Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
