resolvers needing both ivy descriptor and arctifact entries

[Pa...@nokia.com]

Hi,
 
Is there a reason why the filesystem resolver needs both the ivy and
artifact pattern entries to be defined?
 
If I define only one I get an exception - is this what would be
expected?
 
thanks

Defining only artifact pattern should definitely be allowed. Defining only
ivy pattern makes sense in a dual resolver only. Not sure if we can detect
this properly, but we could fail later. Hence I agree Ivy should allow to
define only one kind of pattern on resolvers. Could you open an improvement
issue with detailed message you get?
