I have a Mojo that needs to work with Maven 3.0.* and 3.1+ In the Mojo I have an Artifact and I need to resolve it's dependencies. How can/should I do it?
If I can resolve the Artifact to a MavenProject then I can use DependencyGraphBuilder (from maven-dependency-tree) to construct a graph of the deps. But I'm struggling to make the Artifact to MavenProject conversion happen. I thought that If I could get a URL to the Artifact's POM file then I could use DefaultMavenRuntime (maven-runtime) to resolve the URL into a MavenProject. But 1. I can't work out how to get a URL to the artifact's POM file (it needs to handle both reactor deps and repo deps) 2. Even with a URL to the POM file, MavenRuntime#getProject) is returning null. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Am I even on the right path or is there a much more straight forward way of getting the dependencies for the Artifact? William
