Richard Vowles commented on MNG-3092:
-------------------------------------
Its not an easy fix when so many people work perfectly well with it. Change the
spec, it is easier. Its going to get worse for you, we are documenting this as
a best practice in our new upcoming book :-)
> resolution of version ranges with non-snapshot bounds can resolve to a
> snapshot version

> Key: MNG-3092
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3092
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Dependencies
> Reporter: Mark Hobson
> Assignee: Jason van Zyl
> Fix For: 3.2.x
>
> Attachments: MNG-3092.patch, 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. Note that this is a strict
> equality, so [1.0,1.2-SNAPSHOT] will not contain 1.1-SNAPSHOT.
