resolve

public ClassPathResult resolve(List<org.eclipse.aether.artifact.Artifact> artifacts)
                        throws org.eclipse.aether.RepositoryException

Finds jar file paths and dependency paths for Maven artifacts and their transitive dependencies to build a list of JAR files (class path). When there are multiple versions of an artifact in the dependency tree, the closest to the root in breadth-first order is picked up. This 'pick closest' strategy follows Maven's dependency mediation.

Parameters:

artifacts - Maven artifacts to check. They are treated as the root of the dependency tree.

Throws:

org.eclipse.aether.RepositoryException - when there is a problem retrieving jar files
