Software dependency management through declarative constraints

摘要

In accordance with aspects of the disclosure, systems and methods are provided for managing software component dependencies for applications using declarative constraint definitions, including enabling specification of constraint definitions using a declarative language to analyze and detect software component dependencies on one or more libraries that meet certain criteria, identifying and checking software component dependencies on the one or more libraries that violate the constraint definitions, and implementing an algorithm for analyzing applications and resolving software component dependencies on the one or more libraries that violate the constraint definitions.
