             Summary: Provide public access to KJar snapshot version
                 Key: DROOLS-2754
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-2754
             Project: Drools
          Issue Type: Enhancement
    Affects Versions: 7.8.0.Final
            Reporter: Nils Meyer
            Assignee: Edson Tirelli


When working with KJar SNAPSHOTS being retrieved from a Maven Repo it's often interesting to know the exact version that is currently in use. Therefore having access to the version in a pattern like 1.0.0-20180718.102926-4 would be interesting. 

Currently org.kie.api.builder.ReleaseId returned by org.kie.api.runtime.KieContainer.getReleaseId() does provide a method getVersion that probably is intended to return a version in the format 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT. The underlying implementation org.drools.compiler.kproject.ReleaseIdImpl provides a method getSnapshotVersion that could be used to retrieve the exact version (if it was filled correctly, see DROOLS-2753). 

Solution ideas
* Enhance the ReleaseId Interface with the getSnapshotVersion method (would need adjustments in org.kie.api.management.GAV)
* Change the toString method of ReleaseIdImpl to build the 1.0.0-20180718.102926-4 version type for SNAPSHOT versions
* Live with the current state an do ugly casts from the interface to the implementation to retrieve the snapshot version
