JarCastingResolver Maven Plugin
A Maven plugin for resolving a version range of an artifact to the highest matching version.
For the version range format, see GenericVersionScheme from the Aether project.
Command-line example
When using -Dresolve.print -q, the only output to the console will be the matching version number. This can be used for scripting.
mvn com.subshell.maven:resolver-maven-plugin:resolve-range \
-Dresolve.groupId=org.apache.maven -Dresolve.artifactId=maven-model \
"-Dresolve.versionRange=[3.1.0, 3.3.max]" \
-Dresolve.print -q
pom.xml example
This example writes the matching version number into the property latestMavenModelVersion.
