David,

you don't have to wait for the 2.1.0 release of Ivy. You can create a JIRA issue right away and attach a patch against SVN trunk.

regards,
Maarten

Subject: RE: "all confs except x" in ivy.xml

Hi,
this is not strictly related to the topic being discussed in this conversation ("all confs except x") but I've been wandering for some time: is it possible to do a retrieve (via ivy anttask) for "all types except t1,t2,..." (let's say "all types but image" for retrieving just java sources and all possible textfile resources but without image resources)? Since I was not aware of the "*,!conf1,!conf2" syntax for configurations maybe there is something similar for types. I was looking in the source code and it seems that it would be extremely easy to implement this feature so I've been planning to contribute a patch for that when 2.1.0 is out but maybe it is possible to do this right away.

Thanks,
David
