Gradle `java-platform` plugin: How to set dependencies dynamic version resolution?

Help/Discuss
1

I am trying to make BOM (Bill of materials POM) using Gradle’s java-platform plugin and wish to use Gradle’s locking feature alongside with that plugin: I want to keep versions always up-to-date.

This is part of my build.gradle file.

plugins {
   id "java-platform"
   id "maven-publish"
}

javaPlatform {
  allowDependencies()
}

dependencyLocking {
  lockAllConfigurations()
  lockMode = LockMode.STRICT
}

... skipped ...

dependencies {
  constraints {
    api("com.graphql-java:graphql-java:${library_graphql_version}")
    api("com.graphql-java:java-dataloader:${library_graphqlDataloader_version}")
    
    // Redisson
    api("org.redisson:redisson-hibernate-53:${library_redisson_version}")
    api("org.redisson:redisson-spring-boot-starter:${library_redisson_version}")
    api("org.redisson:redisson-spring-data-23:${library_redisson_version}")
  }
}

publications {
  some(MavenPublication) {
    from components.javaPlatform
    afterEvaluate {
      pom {
        name = 'BOM'
        description = 'Bill of Materials (BOM)'
      }
    }
  }
}

... skipped ...

gradle.properties file

library_graphql_version=14.+
library_graphqlDataloader_version=2.+
library_redisson_version=3.+

And when I execute generatePomFileForSomePublication task it is translated to the following POM fragment:

... skipped ...

<dependencyManagement>
   <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>com.graphql-java</groupId>
        <artifactId>graphql-java</artifactId>
        <version>14.+</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>com.graphql-java</groupId>
        <artifactId>java-dataloader</artifactId>
        <version>2.+</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.redisson</groupId>
        <artifactId>redisson-hibernate-53</artifactId>
        <version>3.+</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.redisson</groupId>
        <artifactId>redisson-spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
        <version>3.+</version>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.redisson</groupId>
        <artifactId>redisson-spring-data-23</artifactId>
        <version>3.+</version>
      </dependency>
   </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

... skipped ...

Obviously, there are plus signs that shouldn’t be in resulting POM. It means, that dependency resolution doesn’t work for java-platform constraints.

So the question is how can I make that dependency resolution work for these constraints?
