Can the getArchiveFileInCache() methods be put on the RepositoryCacheManager
inteface?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-912
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-912
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-beta-2
Reporter: Guy Mahieu
I'm writing an IDE plugin, and I need to access the filepath of a resolved
dependency to add to the dependencies of the IDE project.
To do this, I needed to use the DefaultRepositoryCacheManager directly since
the getArchiveFileInCache(artifact) method is not on the interface.
Was this an intentional decision, if so: how should I lookup the archive for
the artifact? If not, can this method become part of the interface so the
usabiliti of the API increases?
Small code snippet to illustrate the current API usage:
RepositoryCacheManager repositoryCacheManager =
resolver.getRepositoryCacheManager();
if (repositoryCacheManager instanceof
DefaultRepositoryCacheManager) {
DefaultRepositoryCacheManager defaultRepositoryCacheManager =
(DefaultRepositoryCacheManager) repositoryCacheManager;
projectDependencies.add(defaultRepositoryCacheManager.getArchiveFileInCache(artifact).getAbsolutePath());
} else {
// TODO Check with Ivy dev team if the getArchiveFileInCache
method can be pulled up to the interface
throw new RuntimeException("Unsupported RepositoryCacheManager
type: " + repositoryCacheManager.getClass().getName());
}
