[shrinkwrap-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (SHRINKRES-114) Support resolution of versions from a specific artifact

[Andrew Rubinger (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKRES-114?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12757924#comment-12757924 ] 

Andrew Rubinger commented on SHRINKRES-114:
-------------------------------------------

Likely needs no API additions.  Perhaps we could simply start to support version range syntax as defined by http://maven.apache.org/enforcer/enforcer-rules/versionRanges.html in the existing String canonical form and "version" fields.

> There are cases where a version of a specific artifact is unknown during test execution.
> Aether supports version ranging: 
> {code}org.sonatype.aether.RepositorySystem.resolveVersionRange(RepositorySystemSession, VersionRangeRequest){code}
> It would be nice to provide an API in ShrinkWrap Resolver to:
> - Resolve the available versions from a specific given range
> - From that range, the possibility to retrieve the lowest and the highest version
> - Reuse this information to resolve artifacts using the already existing ShrinkWrap Resolver APIs
