How to download/package all versions of artifact

[David Hoffer <dh...@gmail.com>]

I have a use case where I want to include in a subfolder of my assembled
zip all of the versions of a particular artifact (or even better all within
a range of versions).

What's the best way to do this?

Is there a way to specify all versions somehow?  There are about 20+
versions so would be a pretty long list if I have to do them individually.

Bind dependency:copy to an execution and just specify all the artifactItems
in the execution.

Yeah that is what I ended up doing but would rather have gotten the files
from Maven at build time instead of just adding manually to SVN...just
feels wrong...plus what I really would like is the ability to get later
jars every time the build runs if any new ones exist.  I know it might seem
like an odd use case and it is but we have found cases in production where
the version in the classpath won't work due to 3rd party runtime production
issues and at the production site it's not an option to just download a new
jar.

Re: How to download/package all versions of artifact

So these are not project dependencies since only 1 version is allowed as 
a dependency and are not on the classpath since only 1 version is used 
there as well.

As I read your description, you want to include a bunch of jars in a 
resource folder that is not on the classpath of the assembled zip.

Since they are immutable, why would you not just download the stuff that 
you want once and put it in the folder and include the folder in the zip?
