Nested dependencies

["Hallagan . Andrew" <ah...@hpti.com>]

Hi,

Being brand-new to Ivy I have a couple (hopefully) simple questions.  I have three projects, each with their own separate Ivy configurations, but which form a dependency chain.  Each project exists in a directory at the same hierarchal level as the others (e.g., they all exist under /home/username/) but the project in repo_a/ depends on a JAR file produced by repo_b/, which depends on a JAR file in repo_c/.  So at the end of the day, repo_a/ needs to have the JAR files produced by repo_b/ and repo_c/ in its library.

Now, when I run "ant" from within repo_a/, it will pull the correct artifact from repo_b/, but it will not actually build the project in repo_b/.  I'd like to come up with a way so that the "resolve" task actually goes into repo_b/ and reads the ivy.xml file there and resolves repo_b/'s dependencies and then imports THOSE artifacts, along with the ones repo_b/ produces into the library of repo_a/.

My directory structure is given below, this may help to clarify my question.  Notice how A depends on B, and B depends on C.

repo_a/
      ivy.xml
      build.xml
      settings/ivysettings.xml
      lib/
            libraryX.jar
            libraryY.jar

repo_b/
      ivy.xml
      build.xml
      settings/ivysettings.xml
      dist/
            libraryX.jar
      lib/
            libraryY.jar

repo_c/
      ivy.xml
      build.xml
      settings/ivysettings.xml
      dist/
            libraryY.jar

Thank you,

Andrew
