After further testing, what I found is there was a mismatch between the cache I defined and the one I referenced. So naturally the cache did not get referenced. The interesting thing however is the invalid cache reference did not cause Ivy to warn or fail, like it does when you specify other invalid elements (like a resolver for example). ----------------------------------------- ==================================================== This message contains PRIVILEGED and CONFIDENTIAL information that is intended only for use by the named recipient.
