DefaultArtifact: Method getVersionRange returns null also if field version is 
already set! [SMALL PATCH ATTACHED]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-2583
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2583
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Artifacts
    Affects Versions: 2.1
         Environment: Java5, WinXp
            Reporter: Martin Zeltner
         Attachments: patch_maven-artifact_made-getVersionRange-saver.patch

In class *org.apache.maven.artifact.DefaultArtifact* method *getVersionRange* 
returns *null* altough the version field is already set. In attached patch I 
check in method getVersionRange if versionRange is null if field version or 
baseVersion is already set and then create the versionRange by using 
version/baseVersion. By the way I've replaced HashMap with a LinkedHashMap to 
remember the insertion order of meta data.

For those who don't see why this patch is needed can try binding the eclipse 
plugin to a phase before the jar plugin is bound. The eclipse plugin uses the 
org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.DefaultArtifactCollector which is invoking 
method setVersion of org.apache.maven.artifact.DefaultArtifact which will erase 
field version range and cause a NullPointerException in plugin jar that doesn't 
check if returned version range is null.

Cheers,
Martin
