Dynamic FileSystem path

["Muller, Anthony" <an...@sap.com>]

Hello,

I'm just testing Ivy, and I encountered a first problem.

My corporate "repository" is shared through a network directory.

So, I understand I have to customize Ivy settings to handle this.

My problem is the "ivy.shared.default.root" is dynamic... It looks like:
//builds/5_greatest/win64_x64/bin

"5" is the 'greatest' version : that means we must take dependencies from this subdirectory (maybe "6" exists, but it is not 'greatest'). Only one directory is marked as 'greatest' in the "builds" directory. If there is no "greatest", I have to choose the higher version number.

"win64_x64" is a 'platform' parameter: I need to provide it to the Ivy script...

How to solve these issues?

Thanks!

Regards,
Anthony
