Help with maven optional dependencies

[Kishore Vajjala <kv...@gmail.com>]

hi,

I'm a new ivy user and briefly this is the scenario I have.

<ivy-module version="2.0">
<info organisation="ivy-ivy" module="ivy-test"/>
<configurations>
  <conf name="compile" description="compile time dependencies" />
  <conf name="runtime" description="run time dependencies" />
</configurations>
<dependencies>
  <!-- runtime dependencies -->
  <dependency org="org.springframework" name="spring" rev="1.2.8"
conf="*->default"/>
</dependencies>
</ivy-module>

and the ivy build target is
<target name="ivy-resolve" description="--> retrieve dependencies with ivy">

  <ivy:retrieve pattern="${webinf.lib.dir}/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]"
conf="runtime" sync="true" />
  <ivy:retrieve pattern="${devlib.dir}/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]"
conf="compile" sync="true" />
</target>

Now spring atrifact has a lot of optional dependencies which I do not want
in my 'runtime' configuration.

I have followed the instructions in the thread
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ant-ivy-user/200703.mbox/%3C635a05060703310946q2f50880aqe07219c9e3026b83@mail.gmail.com%3E

And I still see that ivy is trying to get jta which is optional and ivy is
still trying to download the optional dependencies.


Can you please help me with this.
