Method Details

endorseStrictVersions

doNotEndorseStrictVersions

void doNotEndorseStrictVersions()

Resets the isEndorsingStrictVersions() state of this dependency.

Since:

isEndorsingStrictVersions

boolean isEndorsingStrictVersions()

Are the VersionConstraint.getStrictVersion() strict version} dependency constraints of the target module endorsed?

Since:

6.0

getArtifactSelectors

List<DependencyArtifact> getArtifactSelectors()

Returns additional artifact information associated with the dependency that is used to select artifacts in the targeted module. For example, a classifier or type defined in POM metadata or a complete artifact name defined in Ivy metadata.
