Thanks Douglass, I understand how its working. But in this case, what is the best practice ?
If we imagine this case : Module B depends of Module A (A->B) 2009-10-01 : the developper D1 commits and publishes to its local a modification on 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT version of module A. 2009-10-20 : a developper D2 commits another modification on 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT of module A and a continue integration system publishes to a shared repository. This modification occurs a new dependancy with module B. 2009-10-21 : developpeur D1 updates the Module B and Ivy downloads the lastest.integration Module A from the local. Thereforce Module B does not compile, because it is older. Has to update Module A and publish the last changes in its local, Developper D1 ? or is there a better pratice ?
