Will May commented on MVERSIONS-144:
------------------------------------
Along side the unit test, the site would also need to be updated to document
this new feature. Also the documentation on using an external rules file is
incorrect:
{noformat}
<configuration>
...
<properties>
...
<rulesUri>http://www.mycompany.com/maven-version-rules.xml</rulesUri>
...
</properties>
...
</configuration>
{noformat}
should be
{noformat}
<configuration>
...
<rulesUri>http://www.mycompany.com/maven-version-rules.xml</rulesUri>
...
</configuration>
{noformat}
> Allow excluding certain versions of artifacts

> Key: MVERSIONS-144
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MVERSIONS-144
> Project: Maven 2.x Versions Plugin
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Will May
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments:
> Allow_certain_artifact_versions_to_be_excluded_from_consideration.patch
>
>
> As some popular projects have released versions with invalid version numbers
> such as asm (version number 20041228.180559), it would be useful to be able
> to ignore certain versions when checking for updates. This functionality
> could also be used to exclude a version which has a known vulnerability.
> This patch doesn't include any unit tests for the new functionality as it's
> only a quick go. I've tested it locally and it correctly ignored the various
> commons-configuration and asm invalid versions. To add a unit test, it would
> be easier to use something such as Mockito but that is Java 5+ only. Are
> there any plans to upgrade to Java 5? Or are there any Java 1.4 mocking
> frameworks?
