Maven specific version of a snapshot dependency
maven-2
Solution
Yes, you can. Any version that is in your maven repositories can be used. I've ran into some problems where the trasnsitive dependencies mucked with the version though. That's where `mvn dependency:tree` came in handy.
- Maven dependency mechanism
- mvn dependency:tree
Problem
Is there a way to get Maven to download a specific snapshot version of a dependency? I know that specifying the dependency like this will download the lastest snapshot available: ``` <dependency> <groupId>groupid</groupId> <artifactId>artifact-id</artifactId> <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> ``` Is it possible to specify a specific snapshot version? (e.g.`artifact-id-1.0.0-20090610.041042-5`) This would be useful if the head snapshot build has broken something and the stable version of the dependency has yet to be officially released.
