Xavier Hanin commented on IVY-530:
----------------------------------
We should also update all tutorials having a clean-cache task. Maybe it's a
good time to publish the cache location root as an Ant property (and to provide
a cleancache task). The cleancache task is very easy to do once we have the Ant
property:
{code}
<presetdef name="cleancache">
<delete dir="${ivy.cache.dir}" />
</presetdef>
{code}
Publishing the ivy.cache.dir property could be done by publishing all ivy
variables as Ant properties at the end of the settings loading. It's very easy
with the IvyAntVariableContainer.
The only problem with my proposition for clean cache is that it doesn't work
with scoping :-( Maybe we should set ivy.cache.dir.[settingsId] for the cache
directory property. Then using presetdef is not possible. Using a macro should
be ok though.
I'll create issues for that if they aren't already.
