Hi,

Is there any way of telling ivy to use a dependency with '+'
notation from a certain status (e.g. 4.0.1.+.release)?
This is not supported out of the box, but in your case you can know if the
build is an integration build just with the version, so what you need is to
write a very simple VersionMatcher which will handle your specific case. If
you have a look at another VersionMatcher you will see it's pretty easy to
write a custom one which will match your exact need. Have a look at the
subversion matcher for instance (which handles the + notation):

We are using the following version notation for our modules:
M.M.F.P<-build-BN>
where:
- M.M is the major version
- F is a feature number (advances in this number mean
backward compatibility with extra features.
- P is the patch number
- For integration builds we use -build.BN where BN is the
build number.
As you can see, this notation appears to make it impossible for us
to declare that we we want to use the latest release patch of a certain
version (4.0.1.+) rather than the latest integration build over that
patch, or the latest release version (which may not be backward compatible).
Combining '+' notation with statuses would seem to solve this
issue.
Is this somehow supported? Is there any workaround anyone can
think of?
Thanks,
