["Mark Hobson (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-612?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=132584#action_132584 ] 

Mark Hobson commented on MNG-612:
---------------------------------

The maven-artifact changes from this patch have been committed to maven-artifact 3.x.  Only Maven 2.1 is using this version, see MNG-3205 for switching Maven 2.0.x over.  The rest of the patch outside of maven-artifact still needs to be applied to 2.0.x and 2.1.

> currently, the collector only:
> - selects nearest "suggested" version in a valid range
> - latest version from the valid ranges if none suggested
> - fails if ranges are over-constrained
> This needs to be configurable:
> - select newest, even if there is a nearer suggestion
> - select oldest, even if there is a nearer suggestion
> - fail if all suggestions don't equate or a range results instead of a single version
> - ignore over constrained ranges and fallback to some other algorithm
> - select snapshots even if they weren't explicitly specified
