Ivy causes IveDE to fail where a properties file is relative to ivyconf.xml
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: IVY-573
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-573
             Project: Ivy
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.4.1
         Environment: Eclipse 3.2, IvyDE 1.2.0, Ivy 1.4.1, Windows XP, Java 
1.5.0_10
            Reporter: james robert burns


The issue manifests in IvyDE but lve confirmed it to be an Ivy issue. IvyDE 
fails to create a classpath container where ivyconf.xml has to resolve a 
properties file that is relative to ivyconf.xml. This occurs because Ivy only 
tries to resolve the properties file in the current directory. In the case of 
Eclipse+IvyDE the current directory is the eclipse.exe directory. So the 
following ivyconf.xml will cause IvyDE to fail.

<ivyconf>
   ...
   <properties file="local.properties" ... />
   ...
</ivyconf>

(This will not fail if build.properties is in the same directory as eclipse.exe)

I have created a patch which l hope l can attach to this issue.
