Stephen Connolly commented on MVERSIONS-163:
--------------------------------------------
the mojo parameters includes and excludes are for in the pom only, i.e.
{code:xml}
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>versions-maven-plugin</artifactId>
...
<configuration>
...
<includes>
<include>*:log4j:*:*:*</include>
</includes>
...
</configuration>
</plugin>
{code}
So they will do nothing from the CLI. In order to 'help' users, there are
equivalent mojo parameters: includesList and excludesList which default to the
properties includes and excludes respectively...
So, the long story cut short is that
{code:bash}
mvn versions:use-latest-versions -DincludesList=*:log4j:*:*:*
mvn versions:use-latest-versions -DincludesList=*:log4j
{code}
should not work _ever_ by design
> includes/excludes/includesList/excludesList don't work correctly

> Key: MVERSIONS-163
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MVERSIONS-163
> Project: Maven 2.x Versions Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Reporter: Stephen Wiebe
> Attachments: pom.xml
>
>
> These parameters don't seem to work according to how they are documented.
> Specifically, I can't get includesList or excludesList to work at all (on the
> command-line), and I can only get includes/excludes to work when specifying a
> pattern like "groupId:artifactId". The documentation specifies that the
> pattern should be "groupId:artifactId:type:classifier:version", which does
> not work. With the attached pom.xml, here is the behavior I'm seeing:
> mvn versions:use-latest-versions -DincludesList=*:log4j:*:*:*
> All dependency versions are updated (should update just log4j
> dependency)
> mvn versions:use-latest-versions -DincludesList=*:log4j
> All dependency versions are updated (should update just log4j
> dependency)
> mvn versions:use-latest-versions -Dincludes=*:log4j:*:*:*
> No dependency versions are updated (should update log4j dependency)
> mvn versions:use-latest-versions -Dincludes=*:*:*:*:1.2.14
> No dependency versions are updated (should update log4j dependency)
> The only command I've found to work successfully is:
> mvn versions:use-latest-versions -Dincludes=*:log4j
> but this is insufficient because I need to filter based on artifact version.
