[jira] Created: (IVY-596) HOWTO - Resolve dependencies on demand
HOWTO - Resolve dependencies on demand
--------------------------------------
Key: IVY-596
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-596
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 1.4.1
Environment: Windows XP, Ant 1.6.5
Reporter: John Wu
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.4.1
Scenario: To run task A, B, C, etc, only a common set of jars/zips (the set D) is needed; to run task X, a large number of jars/zips (the set Y) is needed. In most cases, task A, B, C, etc will be run. And in very rare cases, task X needs to be performed.
Issue: We don't want ivy to resolve (and may retrieve) the jars/zips in set D and Y every time we run the ant task, due to the performance concern and our internal network latency.

John Wu commented on IVY-596:
-----------------------------
That request seems possible based on the description here (http://incubator.apache.org/ivy/history/trunk/configuration/modules.html). But, I couldn't find a concrete working example.

John Wu commented on IVY-596:
-----------------------------
Quote:
Ivy proposes two mechanism to only resolve/retrieve dependencies. You can use configurations, or type of artefact.
The use of configurations will allow you to manage which modules are included in your resolution. The type of artefact will not really change your resolutions, but will only retrieve the artefact with the right type.

[jira] Resolved: (IVY-596) HOWTO - Resolve dependencies on demand

John Wu resolved IVY-596.
-------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Solution: Two configurations (commons and demanding) are defined in the ivy file, and the conf attribute of each ivy retrieve tag in the build file is specified.
Attached is the example, based on ivy 1.4.1. I think it may be a good candidate to be added to the ivy tutorial examples.
