Enhance download options
------------------------
Key: IVY-1011
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1011
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Reporter: Jan Matèrne
Priority: Minor
Enhance the downloading of artefacts.
- parallel downloads
- resuming a download
- partial downloads
- using a downloadmanager (for getting the first three topics)
(Without knowing the internals) I think of something like
public interface Downloader {
/**
* @param source From where to download
* @param target where to store the artefact
* @param progressReporter something that reports the progress (the
[.......]ok at the moment)
*/
download(URI source, File target, ?? progressReporter);
}
Implementations:
- SerialDownloader : the existing downloader
- ParallelDownloader : starts multiple downloads in parallel
- SunDownloader : uses Suns Downloadmanager [1] for doing the job
- ??Downloader : other (free available Java based) download manager
