Requiring a specific version of maven to build a project?
Hi,
Just wondering if there is a POM directive that I can use to enforce the use
of a
specific version of maven for it's modules to be built. Over at Apache
Directory
we have run into situations where users are trying to build old tagged
releases
with versions of maven that do not build properly. My aim is to make sure a
specific
maven version is enforced for the build.
Thanks,
Alex

Maven-enforcer-plugin. The discussions where on the dev list, if you search for the votes on the enforcer plugin, there are some nabble links to the discussions.

Based on some recent discussion, that apparently only works for plugins.
That's exactly why the enforcer plugin was born. :)

I just found it:
http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/maven-model/maven.html#class_prerequisites
It is the MINIMUM version of maven that is required... But it's better than
nothing I suppose...

Not sure if maven checks this, but I've seen these in a couple of POMs:
<prerequisites>
<maven>2.0.3</maven>
</prerequisites>
E.g. this one is from Tobago 1.0.10.

I think there was talk of an enforcer plugin somewhere, you might want to
search for that.
