[jira] Commented: (IVY-364) Default status behavior in StatusManager

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-364?page=comments#action_12461053 ] 
            
Xavier Hanin commented on IVY-364:
----------------------------------

I'd say that if you do not set the default status the last one will be used as default status, as documented here:
http://www.jayasoft.org/ivy/doc/configuration/statuses.html

So the extra step in XmlIvyConfigurationParser is not necessary. Since using the last status is what is documented with Ivy 1.4, I prefer keeping things like that. But I agree this need to be better documented and explained, as you suggest in IVY-362.

> Looking at StatusManager and XmlIvyConfigurationParser.
> It is unclear whether or not a null default status is valid.
> The SAX code goes the extra step not to put null, yet the StatusManager deals with null by automatically setting the last element of the statuses (why is that ? so that means that order is relevant ? what's the rationale ? )
> Failing on null and checking that the default status is actually really on the provided list of statuses would be my preference.
