问题
I have a significant number of Maven projects in Eclipse, with quite a lot of dependencies.
Some of the dependencies are frequently being updated in repositories as new versions are released. Currently I have to look out for these manually, and manually edit the respective pom.xmls to use the new version.
Is there an automatic way to do the following in Eclipse:
- Check whether newer versions of each dependency are available?
- If so, automatically suggest changes to the
pom.xml(like a "quick fix" feature)?
回答1:
You are looking for maven versions plugin:
versions:display-dependency-updates Displays all dependencies that have newer versions available.
This will show a list of all updated dependencies. There is a similar command to show a list of all the updated plugins.
There doesn't seem to be a command to update the dependencies to their latest versions automatically. From the docs it looks like you can use the versions:display-property-updates to update the dependency versions if they are specified as properties in the pom file.

When using Github you could use the Dependabot GitHub plugin, it generates a pull-request for each dependency needing an update.
