如何说不因存储库中没有的依赖关系而失败？

Question

I'm trying to collect dependencies of artifacts using eclipse-aether , doing the following:

Artifact artifact = ...
DependencyVisitor dependencySaver = ...

ArtifactDescriptorRequest descriptorRequest = new ArtifactDescriptorRequest();
descriptorRequest.setArtifact(artifact);
descriptorRequest.setRepositories(Booter.newRepositories(system, session));
ArtifactDescriptorResult descriptorResult = system.readArtifactDescriptor(session, descriptorRequest);

CollectRequest collectRequest = new CollectRequest();
collectRequest.setRootArtifact(descriptorResult.getArtifact());
collectRequest.setDependencies(descriptorResult.getDependencies());
collectRequest.setManagedDependencies(descriptorResult.getManagedDependencies());
collectRequest.setRepositories(descriptorRequest.getRepositories());
CollectResult collectResult = system.collectDependencies(session, collectRequest);

collectResult.getRoot().accept(dependencySaver);

Apache repository happens to contain artifacts with dependencies, which themselves are not in repository. For example, org.apache.deltaspike:parent-code:pom:1.1.0 has dependency on org.jboss.arquillian:arquillian-bom:pom:1.0.2.Final , which is not present.

In such situations Aether rejects to report results:

Is there a way to make aether give at least partial result with names of all accessible dependencies?

Answer 1

The problem is simply that the given artifact:

org.jboss.arquillian:arquillian-bom:1.1.0

contains the wrong version. The version must be:

org.jboss.arquillian:arquillian-bom:1.1.0.Final

You need to define the version correctly:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jboss.arquillian</groupId>
    <artifactId>arquillian-bom</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0.Final</version>
</dependency>
