Retrieve Pattern does not respect or report issues with absolute paths
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IVYDE-126
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVYDE-126
Project: IvyDE
Issue Type: Improvement
Environment: Ubuntu 64 discovered
Reporter: Phil Beiler
Priority: Minor
It appears that no matter what value I give as a directory path, the files
will get retrieved relative to the workspace project directory. If I use
~/.ivy/[artifact].[ext], it will actually create a tilde (~) directory under my
project root. If I try /tmp/ivy/[artifact].[ext], it will remove the leading
slash and create the tmp directory under the project root. Try $HOME... that
creates a cool directory called "$HOME"!
So, is the expected behavior of the plug-in, that everything will be relative
or inside the project? It is certainly not obvious when using $HOME, ~/,
/tmp, etc. No warnings, no errors....
[EMAIL PROTECTED] said... Yep this is expected. But it can clearly be improved
to support absolute path, I think this deserve a jira issue.
