Hi Carsten, IANAC (I am not a commiter), but I saw your patch go by and had a few thoughts.
I understand that, for your from-Maven dependencies, there are .pom around already, but that seems like luck--what about other dependencies you're pulling in that didn't come from Maven? That don't have existing poms? I think a more general solution would be to have ivy:install support using the ivy:makepom functionality to systematically make POMs for your module + all of the dependencies directly from their Ivy files. Yes, this would cause round-tripping from original POM -> Ivy file -> derived POM, such that original POM may != derived POM, but I think conceptually this "install into repo with POMs for *all* artifacts" is a better feature for Ivy than "install into repo with POMs for only the artifacts that happen to already have them". That said, your approach sounds great for your specific setup, but it seems like a little bit of a hack and not very general to me. - Stephen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@ant.apache.org
