OSGi-friendly OSGi friendly LatestRevisionStrategy
--------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-1208
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1208
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.2.0-RC1, 2.1.0, 2.0
Reporter: John Gibson
Priority: Minor
The latest revision strategy is incompatible with OSGi's versioning scheme.
For example Ivy considers 1.1.1 is considered to be after 1.1.1.foo. This is
at odds with OSGi's versioning rules, and can cause the incorrect revision to
be selected when working with bundles from Spring Source's repository
(http://www.springsource.com/repository/app/), for example.
Alex Radeski raised this issue about 2 years ago and provided the attached
patch to correct it. I propose that we either accept his patch to improve the
behavior or follow Xavier Hanin's suggestion and adapt it to provide a separate
osgi revision strategy.
