I use IVY 2.0. I have the following configuration: - I have a first project called A in my repository which references the C++ lib boost. The ivy.xml file of my project A declares the dependency as follow: <dependency org="org.boost" name="boost" rev="1.38.+"> When the project A is published, the resolved dependency becomes the following: <dependency org="org.boost" name="boost" rev="1.38.0" revConstraint="1.38.+"> which is perfectly logical. - I have a second project called B which references both project A and boost library. The depencies are defined as follow: <dependency org="com.bluekaizen" name="A" rev="1.0.+"/> <dependency org="org.boost" name="boost" rev="1.38.+"> When I ask IVY to resolve the dependencies, IVY tells me that there is two conflicting revision for boost : 1.38.+ and 1.38.0 and decides to keep the 1.38.+. Why IVY does not detect that the revision is the same ? In a simple case like this example it is not a problem but if you add include/exlucde instructions to your dependencies declaration, the observed behavior leads to have only the include/exclude instructions of the 1.38.+ revision and not the ones of the 1.38.0. Is this a bug ? Or just a configuration problem ? -- Alexandre Gacon
