Ivy dependency tree

["Jain, Pankaj" <Pa...@gs.com>]

Hi,

I am trying to get dependency tree (including transitive dependencies)
of a module.
I just need a dependency tree in a form of string and don't want to
actually download any of the dependent jars. 
Does ivy provides any way by which this can be acheived?


Example: Following works and I get a string dependency.tree. But I need
this without downloading dependent jars
        <ivy:cachepath organisation="org" module="module"
revision="latest.revision" inline="true" pathid="archive.classpath"
useOrigin="true"/>
        <property name="dependency.tree" refid="archive.classpath"/>
        <echo>${dependency.tree}</echo>



Thanks,
Pankaj

Ivy ant tasks do not support that, but you can use the Ivy API to set
download=false on the ResolveOptions used (check IvyResolve task to have an
example of how to call Ivy).

You can also open an improvement issue and provide a patch to implement this
in IvyResolve, it should be pretty easy (provide a junit and documentation
patch too to increase chance to get integrated).
