Hey, I'm trying to run through the tutorials on Ivy and I'm currently up to the "Adjust Default Settings" one ( http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/tutorial/defaultconf.html ).
This doesn't work for me, and it kind of prevents me from going further without making changes to each project. Basically, the configuration to change the ivysettings location isn't getting picked up it would seem, and so it doesn't find the ivysettings file in ../settings. Turning on the -verbose option of ant I get the following output: resolve: No ivy:settings found for the default reference 'ivy.instance'. A default instance will be used Loading jar:file:/C:/Oracle/Middleware/jdeveloper/ant/lib/ivy.jar!/org/apache/ivy/core/settings/ivy.properties searching settings file: trying C:\projects\apache-ivy-2.3.0-rc1\src\example\chained-resolvers\chainedresolvers-project\ivysettings.xml searching settings file: trying C:\projects\apache-ivy-2.3.0-rc1\src\example\chained-resolvers\chainedresolvers-project\ivyconf.xml searching settings file: trying ivysettings.xml searching settings file: trying ivyconf.xml no settings file found, using default... [ivy:retrieve] :: Ivy 2.0.0-beta1 - 20071206070608 :: http://ant.apache.org/ivy/ :: :: loading settings :: url = jar:file:/C:/Oracle/Middleware/jdeveloper/ant/lib/ivy.jar!/org/apache/ivy/core/settings/ivysettings.xml Snippets from build.xml: <!-- ivy properties used --> <property name="ivy.settings.dir" value="../settings" /> <ivy:settings file="${ivy.settings.dir}/ivysettings.xml" /> Because this file isn't picked up, the resolver which points to the directory within the chained-resolvers directory isn't configured and so the dependency isn't found. If I drop the ivysettings.xml file into the same directory as the build file then all is well, this defeats the purpose of the tutorial however, and wouldn't be practical going forward in a real application. How can I get my build to look for the ivysettings.xml in the ../settings dir? Cheers, Ross
