             Summary: Extend Ivy usage for easier external lib management
                 Key: OFBIZ-5464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5464
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ALL COMPONENTS, framework
    Affects Versions: SVN trunk
            Reporter: Pierre Smits


Currently Apache Ivy is used to facilitate downloads of specific external jar files for Activemq, mySQL, postgreSQL configuration and Sonar and Cobertura functions. 

However, Apache Ivy can also be for easier management of the standard jars OFBiz is dependent on, in
- various framework areas
- various base and special purpose applications/components.

Applying more ivy functionality will decrease the load on commiters regarding maintenance of  (and upgrading) external jars used  and required licence information.
