Summary: Archetype version range support Key: ARCHETYPE-564 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-564 Project: Maven Archetype Issue Type: New Feature Components: Archetypes Affects Versions: 3.0.1 Reporter: Alejandro Torras Hi, Currently I'm only able to fetch a versioned archetype with the following situations: # Not specifying an archetypeVersion at all. # Specifying a fixed version (i.e. 1.7.3). # Specifying the _LATEST_ version. I don't know if there are more choices about it, but IMHO I think it could be great to define a version range for archetypes (as it's currently done with dependencies). An example could be: {noformat} mvn -B archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.acme.archetype -DarchetypeArtifactId=plugin-archetype-rest -DartifactId=AppRest -DgroupId=com.acme.app -Dversion=1.0 '-DarchetypeVersion=(,1.8.0)' {noformat} Thank you! -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
