Hello Nicolas, I am trying to understand in which use case I would need this resolver. It seems to be in the case that you want to build using Ant a stack of modules in a directory tree, and use the target/classes folder of each module as a dependency.
Does this workspace resolver also has something for test classes which usually are output to a different root folder (for instance target/test-classes). Best regards Nicolas, great to see all the work you do for ivy.
