The retrieve task should preserve directory structure reflected in
organisation's dotted notation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-781
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-781
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Ant
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-beta-2
Reporter: Carlton Brown
Priority: Minor
For any publish-capable m2compatible resolver, <ivy:publish> will map dotted
notation into a nested directory structure.
Currently, <ivy:retrieve> does not behave the same way. When you retrieve an
artifact with organisation org.ivy.foo, it retrieves into a directory named
org.ivy.foo.
For consistency, it should map to a directory structure like org/ivy/foo the
same way as <ivy:publish> does. I think this should be the default behavior.
If someone decides they want it flattened, there could be an attribute
flattenOrgNamespace or some such.
This could be either a bug or an improvement, but I decided it was inconsistent
and non-intuitive for publish and retrieve to handle dotted notation
differently, so it could be considered a bug. WDYT?
