Use versions that are not dependencies

[Arc-E-Tect]

Hi,

Great plugin, it saves me a lot of manual updating my own properties file.

I was wondering how I can use the individual properties from the versions.properties file. For example, when using JaCoCo, I want to set the tool version to the same version as the JaCoCo dependency defined in versions. properties, but can't get it to work.

jacoco {
    toolVersion = '0.8.8'
}

When I replace it with

jacoco {
    toolVersion = '$version.org.jacoco..org.jacoco.agent'
}

The value is not resolved but taken literally. I tried to load versions.properties in my buildscript section as I did before with my own properties file.

buildscript {
    ext {
        minCodeCoverage = 1.0
    }

    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    apply from: "versions.properties"

    dependencies {
        classpath  group: "org.owasp", name:"dependency-check-gradle", version:"_"
    }

    apply from: 'gradle/jacoco.gradle'
}

But that results in a compiler error because the #### is not accepted.

Thanks

You have to use `versionFor(...)` https://jmfayard.github.io/refreshVersions/add-dependencies/#get-the-version-from-anywhere Le ven. 10 juin 2022 à 21:48, Iwan Eising ***@***.***> a écrit :

That worked, thanks.
