[jira] Closed: (MDEP-88) Dependency plugin does not resolve version ranges correctly

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-88?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Brian Fox closed MDEP-88.
-------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

MDEP-50 has been added to support ranges in the unpack goal. unpack-dependencies uses core functionality to resolve the ranges and thus the behavior can't be fixed in the plugin.

>             Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-4
>         Environment: XP Pro SP2
>            Reporter: David Hoffer

> Similar to MRELEASE-134 in maven-release-plugin
> <version>[1.1.0,)</version>
> This version range can resolve to the latest dev SNAPSHOT.  The dependency plugin should ignore SNAPSHOTS as that is not intended by the unbounded high end of the version range.
> This document:
> http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Dependency+Mediation+and+Conflict+Resolution#DependencyMediationandConflictResolution-DependencyVersionRanges
> addressed the requirements for version ranges and stated that "Resolution of dependency ranges should not resolve to a snapshot (development version) unless it is included as an explicit boundary". I think this requirement was forgetten when version ranges were implemented.
