[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBBUILD-323) JBossBuild needs to be able to calculate component version using highest common denominator algorithm

[Paul Gier (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBBUILD-323?page=all ]

Paul Gier closed JBBUILD-323.
-----------------------------

    Resolution: Done

Maven has a few options for specifying version ranges, and various options for excluding certain transitive dependencies.  These options should be sufficient for jboss projects.

> We've already had this discussion, and thought that it's not easy to implement. However, I do think we need this done since I don't want all projects to enumerate all their 3rd party dependencies in build-thirdparty.xml.
> Example: these products include the following javassist versions
> 1. aop 1.5.0.GA:     javassist 3.2.0.CR1, 3.2.0.CR2, 3.3.0.GA
> 2. ws 1.0.0.GA:       javassist 3.2.0.CR1, 3.2.0.CR2, 3.3.0.GA
> 3. ejb3 1.0.0.CR8: javassist 3.2.0.CR1, 3.2.0.CR2, 3.2.0.GA
> JBossBuild needs to be able to determine that javassist 3.2.0.CR2 is the highest common denominator. Current behaviour is that JBossBuild takes the highest version of the component whenever it runs into it for the first time during the dependency graph traversal.
> Does Maven already support this? It seems like this should be one of the core maven features. 
> Could you please look more info feasibility of implementing this in JBossBuild?
