[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (IVY-1003) Add support for transitive retrieval of source and javadoc artifacts

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I tried to implement: transitive-sources->transitive-sources(sources)
which was discussed there:
http://old.nabble.com/pom2ivy-and-transitive-source-retrieving-to25112985.html#a25112985

But some test case fail, especially ResolveTest#testResolveMaven2ClassifiersWithoutPOM
When there is no pom, there is no configuration declared apart from the default one, which makes the transitive-sources->transitive-sources(sources) fail.
So we probably need more than I did there with the provided patch. We will need the "none" configuration explained by Xavier in the discussion pointed in the above link: "a special fallback conf which means no dependency conf if the required one does not exist".

> Currently, IVY only supports retrieving 'jar' artifacts transitively (using the 'transitive' attribute of a dependency), as documented [here|http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/trunk/ivyfile/dependency.html].
> It would be very nice if IVY would also support transitive retrieval of the source and javadoc artifacts. 
> This would require two extra attributes for the dependency element:
> * transitive-source
> * transitive-javadoc
> To ensure backwards compatibility, these attributes should be optional and should default to false.
