Thanks for the reply. I did consider this but last time I tried a property subsitution in IvyDE it did not work as its Ant that does the property subsitution.
Ill retry again and update. If not Xavier, is there anyawy IvyDE could be updated and passed a build.xml file and all its properties get set (from build.properties files and any imported files eg library_build.xml) so that we get the same behavior in both places?

Maarten ----- Original Message ---- From: "Foreman, Alex (IT)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2008 2:40:33 PM Subject: OS Specific dependencies I have a dependency X with a dll for use on windows and a so for use on linux/*nix. If I have .... conf runtime Conf windows extends runtime Conf unix extends runtime .... Artifact name ="x" type="jar" conf="runtime" Artifact name ="y" type="dll" conf="windows" Artifact name ="z" type="so" conf="unix" .... I can refer to which one I want at anyone time. However What I want is Ivy to automatically pick up this by its OS type. EG I am running in eclipse and want to run Ant from there I select the dependecny and use conf='default->windows' When I run this in unix I have to manually change the ivy.xml file. I should not need to do that. It should automatically be able to choose which one I need. So the same ivy file works on any platform. The sos are not even downloadable in windows and the dlls are not available in unix. Is there any solution to this? Has anyone encountered this type of problem with JNI's and found a good way around it?
