[jira] Commented: (IVY-643) Ship ivy with commons-vfs-sandbox.jar, because it provides the webdav support

["David Seymore (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-643?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12594905#action_12594905 ] 

David Seymore commented on IVY-643:
-----------------------------------

So, i'm not ready to jump to ivy 2 (http://www.audioscrobbler.net/development/ivysvn/ requires); and the older project ivy+svn is just.. way out of the loop and didn't support PUT operations. So, I wrote a 1.4.1 compatible ivy svn resolver.

Its a work in progress. but, took very little time to get up and running.... versus spending days trying to get ivy+svn up to speed.  I've given up on just webdav.. I like the idea of having versioning on the repository.

> The commons-vsf project has been split into commons-vfs.jar and commons-vfs-sandbox.jar. The webdav support is provided by commons-vfs-sandbox.jar, see http://commons.apache.org/vfs/index.html : "Due to some technical reasons we had to move the webdav and jcifs (smb) filesystem to the sandbox. So if you need one of these filesystems you have to build VFS manually."
> Ivy does not come with commons-vfs-sandbox.jar and I believe it should in order to prevent its users from the hassle of building commons-vfs themselves. I myself built it from commons-vfs 1.0 source.
