Idea Plugin does not handle any kind of Version ranges
------------------------------------------------------
Key: MIDEA-70
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MIDEA-70
Project: Maven 2.x Idea Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Jan Thomae
Priority: Blocker
I am using version ranges in my project. For example, i have specified a range
for hibernate:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate</artifactId>
<version>[3.1.3,)</version>
</dependency>
Now idea:idea tries to download
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/hibernate/hibernate/[3.1.3,)/hibernate-[3.1.3,).pom
instead of recognizing that i have given a range and looking for an
appropriate version. Since it cannot resolve the dependency, it does not create
any dependencies for the module at all.
Even worse, it crashes if any dependency uses version ranges. I could live with
the issue and stick to fixed versions for the time being, however i have no
control about the poms of the dependencies i am linking, so if a pom of a
dependency is containing a version range, i am totally out of luck. E.g one of
my modules references to jasperreports:
<dependency>
<groupId>jasperreports</groupId>
<artifactId>jasperreports</artifactId>
<version>1.2.7</version>
</dependency>
which itself contains a ranged dependency. When i try to do idea:idea on that
one i get:
