Ok, so I think I figured it out, but still not sure if anything is out
of the ordinary. I took bits and pieces of this from the ivy
Main.main method...
Ivy ivy = Ivy.newInstance();
ivy.configureDefault();
File ivyfile = File.createTempFile("ivy", ".xml");
ivyfile.deleteOnExit();
String[] dep = new String[]{"commons-lang", "commons-lang", "1.0"};
DefaultModuleDescriptor md = DefaultModuleDescriptor
.newDefaultInstance(ModuleRevisionId.newInstance(dep[0],
dep[1] + "-caller", "working"));
DefaultDependencyDescriptor dd = new DefaultDependencyDescriptor(md,
ModuleRevisionId.newInstance(dep[0], dep[1], dep[2]),
false, false, true);
md.addDependency(dd);
XmlModuleDescriptorWriter.write(md, ivyfile);
String[] confs = new String[]{"default"};
ResolveOptions resolveOptions = new ResolveOptions().setConfs(confs);
ResolveReport report = ivy.resolve(ivyfile.toURL(), resolveOptions);
It would be nice for someone to document this. I can imagine many
systems wanting to use ivy's resolution mechanism outside of the ant
process.
