IvyDE Accepted Types
I have set Accepted types to:
jar, zip, dll
Within IvyDE
I have a ivyfile which defines a list of .so files and .dll files. All in the same configuration.
I want to grab stuff by type only.
When building on unix I want to say:
Give me this module and all its artifacts that are .so types only
Eg
Artifact -> x.dll
Artifact -> y.dll
Artifact -> z.so
Would return just z.so as type="jar,so"
This doesn't seem to work in unix either or from the dos shell.
<ivy:cachepath pathid="tests" conf="jni" type="so" useOrigin="true" />
Grabs everything in the configuration regardless of type.
Is this a bug? Missing functionality? As according to this page:
http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/use/cachepath.html
This is what 'type' does.
This is a major blocker for me. If I can say grab everything that is of types x and y and ignore everything else then I have pretty much solved my problems with getting JNIs working without hassle.
Many thanks for your help,

I agree it would be nice to improve this, but we'd have to think about all the side effects, since a resolve can be reused, possibly with a different filter. Maybe dependency resolution and metadata collection should be fully done, and only artifacts download would be skipped. Then later if an artifact is missing Ivy could simply download it. Please open an issue in JIRA to ask for that.

RE: IvyDE Accepted Types
Posted by "Foreman, Alex (IT)" <Al...@morganstanley.com>.
Thanks for the reply,
ON further examination it is doing as you describe.
1. Search for all artifacts in conf.
2. Download all artifacts in conf.
3. Filter by type and place only those artifacts on the classpath.
Can this be modified so we only download the artifacts that are filtered. Or at least have a attribute to turn it on?
I can see this functionality being more obvious:
1. Search for all artifacts in conf of type="x(,y...)"
2. Download only these artifacts Completely ignoring any of the wrong type.
What do you guys think?

It should work. But note that the filter is applied by cachepath only, not by the resolve. So Ivy will actually download all artifacts, but only so should be in your path 'tests' after the call to cachepath. If it doesn't work like that, you can open an issue, describing precisely how you call cachepath, what is your ivy file for the dependency, and what you get in your path.

It should work. But note that the filter is applied by cachepath only, not
by the resolve. So Ivy will actually download all artifacts, but only so
should be in your path 'tests' after the call to cachepath. If it doesn't
work like that, you can open an issue, describing precisely how you call
cachepath, what is your ivy file for the dependency, and what you get in
your path.
