Dependency problem with changed "org"

[Scott Palmer <sw...@gmail.com>]

I have something like this:

<dependency org="xx.yyyzzz" name="a" rev="1.0.10"/>
<dependency org="xxx.yyy-zzz" name="b" rev="1.0.10"/>

The problem is that module "b" has a dependency that looks like:
	<dependency org="xxx.yyy-zzz" name="a" rev="1.0.4"/>


It is and earlier version of the "a" that my code depends on, but module "a" changed to a new org (group) for the later revision (the old one has a hyphen, then new one doesn't).

I need to use a-1.0.10 but I'm only getting a-1.0.4.  If I add an exclude, such as:

<dependency org="xx.yyyzzz" name="a" rev="1.0.10"/>
<dependency org="xxx.yyy-zzz" name="b" rev="1.0.10">
  <exclude org="xxx.yyy-zzz" name="a"/>
</dependency>

Then I don't get ANY version of module "a"

I'm using ivy 2.2.0 on Windows with JDK 1.6.0_25

Is there a way to work around this?

Regards,

Scott

namespaces is probably what you are looking for:
