Matt Benson commented on IVY-232:
---------------------------------
Ah; I had assumed that everywhere you instantiated File objects you'd just
create them relative to an Ivy user dir that was either set explicitly or
calculated from the default user dir, thus that properly setting the default
user dir for Ant-based Ivy usage might be enough. Is that approach, i.e.
creating all files based on the IvySettings, the one you intend to take?

> Affects Versions: 1.3-RC2

> Suppose you have two projects in two directories:
> /projA
> /projB
> Each one of them have its own build.xml.
> When you run Ant on /projA/build.xml from /projA evrything is ok.
> When you run from "/projB" "ant -f ..\projA\build.xml" relative pathes are
> based on "projB" by Ivy, whereas the correct way (as Ant and Maven works) is
> to use "projA" as the base directory (assuming "/projA/build.xml" has
> "basedir" attribute: ".")
> In other words, Ivy should take the base directory as specified in the
> "build.xml" file in "project" tag in "basedir" attribute, and calculate it
> based on the location of the build.xml file; not based on the "current"
> directory where Ant was invoced from.
