single string GAV exploding as a utility method somewhere in Maven?

[Barrie Treloar <ba...@gmail.com>]

Is there somewhere in the Maven code that we handle a single string as a
GAV that can get exploded correctly for Artifact resolving?

The dependency:get does it manually, and I'm loathe to copy-and-paste.

In Aether in DefaultArtifact the constructor contains the regex used for parsing. You can use that directly if you’re using Aether to resolve, or if you’re using the Maven APIs you can convert the Aether artifact to a Maven artifact using RepositoryUtils.toArtifact() in maven-core.
