Tom,

Thanks much for the "eternal" reference. That is a good thing to note and I will give it a try.

With that said, I had thought we had set our behavior such that we have a 12 hour TTL for the "remote" caches. Despite that, it still seems to take a *very* long time to resolve and appears to be going back out the SVN resolvers. I will take a look at the Ant debug output once again to see what is going on, but I'm wondering if there is something else I might be missing that is causing this behavior?

Thanks,
Craig

Hello,

We are still getting our heads around all that Ivy offers and trying to apply it to our build infrastructure along with Hudson. In general, things are working pretty well for us, but while on a flight last week, I found that despite having a fully primed resolution cache, that resolution still wanted to call out and check the cache, causing build failures while disconnected. It was my understanding that the caching should have been able to take care of this, but obviously we aren't doing something correctly. I'm hoping someone can shed some light on what we might be doing wrong. Our Ivy settings file is embedded below.

Thanks for any insights,
Craig

When running disconnected, you could set:
ivy.cache.ttl.default
to "eternal". This means that cached dynamic revisions should not be re-checked at all. You can also do this explicitly using a cache element:

<cache name="remote-cache" useOrigin="false" blah>
<ttl duration="${remote.ttl.duration}"/>
</cache>

(use this cache for your svn resolvers)

Now your ant script can somehow arrange to set remote.ttl.duration to "eternal" if you are offline, or to 0ms (or similar) if you are online.

Tom
