Better support for local builds
-------------------------------
Key: IVY-857
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-857
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Reporter: Xavier Hanin
Currently Ivy suggests to use a local filesystem resolver in a chain with
returnFirst="true" to support local builds. It works well as long as you have
control over the dependency revision requested, and can hence ask for a
latest.integration version. But in some cases it would be nice to also override
a transitive dependency, where do not control the requested revision.
Eg:
#A -> #B;1.0 -> #C;1.0
A developer work on #A and #C, and want to use a local build for #C. But this
requires a local publication of #B too, just too override the dependency on #C.
It would be better to have a resolver able to force the returned module for the
dependency on #C to a locally published module, whatever the requested revision
is.
