If you have a bunch of jars that are part of teiid rather take library that teiid depends on, you could specify them using artifact elements in your teiid ivy file. There are implicit artifacts that match your module name if you don't specify them explicitly. I would probably flatten the tree, putting all needed jars in one dir, then get a one-file-per-line directory listing, and wrap each line with
<artifact name="..." type="jar" conf="default " /> Or whatever is appropriate, then stick the whole mess in the appropriate place in the teiid ivy file (not your project's ivy file) http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/latest-milestone/ivyfile/publications.html Original Message From: Gary Gregory Sent: Friday, April 25, 2014 14:28 To: ivy-user@ant.apache.org Reply To: ivy-user@ant.apache.org Subject: Re: How do I add all jars in a zip as dependencies? Thank you all for your replies. It seems that for all the avenues proposed, I'd have to end up writing an ivy.xml file, _which is what I want to avoid_. Even if I did that programmatically, what would it contain based on a directory full of jars? Could I just make up dummy org names and module names, since there's not going to be OSGi type of info in most of these jars files. I guess not since I'd have to give the file back to Ivy for by calling ivy:resolve. What I want is <ivy:resolveJars dir="..." pattern="*.jar" conf="..."/> but that does not exist :( At the end of the day I want the jars on a classpath in IvyDE and Ant. In Ant I can do the above easily "make a cp from all the jars over here", but in IvyDE? I guess I'll have to add them all to the .classpath file, not great... Am I missing something?
