Version ranges in gradle

Question

Answer 1

The book "Gradle Dependency Management" states on p. 12 and 13 that, in addition to the +-notation (2.1.+ means the range from 2.1.0 inclusive to 2.2.0 exclusive) you can use the Ivy notation for open and closed intervals of the form

[1.0,2.0]
[1.0,2.0[

or also

[1.0, )

for "all versions starting from 1.0".
