[jira] Commented: (IVY-651) Ivy should be able to handle downloadUrl in POM

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-651?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12547358 ] 

Xavier Hanin commented on IVY-651:
----------------------------------

Agreed with Gilles, but providing information on how to install the file is pretty tricky with Ivy: we have no easy command line support, and we don't know in advance what the name of the resolvers are. Maybe we could keep concentrated on the out of the box ease of use, and provide instructions for the 'shared' resolver if defined. This still mean that we'd need a better command line support. Or maybe we can just give an the instruction of where the files should be copied (resolving the artifact pattern of the shared repository if any), instead of trying to use Ivy which is almost more difficult for something as easy as a file copy.

> In Maven2, sometimes there is no jar files in the specified location but the downloadUrl is specified in POM. Ivy should be able to redirect to download the correct jar files from the specified location.
> For example,
> http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/bea/wlplatform/commonj-twm/1.1/commonj-twm-1.1.pom
