Erik Schepers commented on MNG-3092: ------------------------------------ I strongly agree with Syvalta. We are currently using ranges in our projects, and are now only able to perform releases on maven-3.0-beta-1, as this issue was resolved in that version only. As I understand the enforcer-plugin does not solve this problem, it provides only an after-the-fact observation. The specification has been clear, so why not fix this issue on the short term (3.0.2?) I wouldn't mind to have to add the {{\[x,y){use-snapshots=false\}}} to explicitly exclude snapshots, while the default behaviour stays as it is now (include snapshots in the range). I also wouldn't mind a command-line option to disable snapshots in ranges explicitly. But at least I need something to be able to perform a release in combination with version-ranges. With the current state of maven-3, that's not possible (or at least I don't know how). > Version ranges with non-snapshot bounds can contain snapshot versions > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-3092 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3092 > Project: Maven 2 & 3 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Dependencies > Reporter: Mark Hobson > Attachments: MNG-3092.patch > > > Contrary to the 2.0 design docs: > "Resolution of dependency ranges should not resolve to a snapshot > (development version) unless it is included as an explicit boundary." > -- from > http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Dependency+Mediation+and+Conflict+Resolution#DependencyMediationandConflictResolution-Incorporating%7B%7BSNAPSHOT%7D%7Dversionsintothespecification > The following is equates to true: > VersionRange.createFromVersionSpec( "[1.0,1.1]" ).containsVersion( new > DefaultArtifactVersion( "1.1-SNAPSHOT" ) ) > The attached patch only allows snapshot versions to be contained in a range > if they are equal to one of the boundaries.
