returnFirst should be attribute of chain resolver, rather than standard resolver
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-998
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-998
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.0-RC2
Environment: n/a
Reporter: Carlton Brown
Priority: Minor
Currently, the returnFirst setting is an attribute of standard resolvers.
This creates a significant problem with the use case where there is a standard
resolver which should be returned first in some chains, but not in others.
The only workaround is to define duplicates of the same resolver, one where
returnFirst is true, and one where it is false. This kludge can cause the
number of resolvers to increase geometrically if there are many of them.
I think this could be easily solved by making returnFirst an attribute of chain
resolvers. Any chain resolver where returnFirst is set would return the first
resolver in the chain.
