      • CONFIG_PROP_COLLECTOR_IMPL

        public static final java.lang.String CONFIG_PROP_COLLECTOR_IMPL
        The name of the dependency collector implementation to use: depth-first (original) named "df", and breadth-first (new in 1.8.0) named "bf". Both collectors produce equivalent results, but they may differ performance wise, depending on project being applied to. Our experience shows that existing "df" is well suited for smaller to medium size projects, while "bf" may perform better on huge projects with many dependencies. Experiment (and come back to us!) to figure out which one suits you the better.

        Description copied from interface: DependencyCollector
        Collects the transitive dependencies of some artifacts and builds a dependency graph. Note that this operation is only concerned about determining the coordinates of the transitive dependencies and does not actually resolve the artifact files. The supplied session carries various hooks to customize the dependency graph that must be invoked throughout the operation.
        Specified by:
        collectDependencies in interface DependencyCollector
        Parameters:
        session - The repository session, must not be null.
        request - The collection request, must not be null.
        Returns:
        The collection result, never null.
        Throws:
        org.eclipse.aether.collection.DependencyCollectionException - If the dependency tree could not be built.
