LatestVersionMatcher.needModuleDescriptor() does not honor custom statuses
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-1170
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1170
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Reporter: Carl Quinn
While tracking down some unexpected behavior in our Ivy-based build system, I
ran across what looks like a bug in
LatestVersionMatcher.needModuleDescriptor(). In that method, it has a
hard-coded check for "latest.integration" to determine when to not require a
module descriptor and just grab the newest thing.
public boolean needModuleDescriptor(ModuleRevisionId askedMrid,
ModuleRevisionId foundMrid) {
return !"latest.integration".equals(askedMrid.getRevision());
}
In our case, we have redefined our status to be the maven-like names:
<statuses default="snapshot">
<status name="release" integration="false"/>
<status name="snapshot" integration="true"/>
</statuses>
Where in our case "snapshot" replaces "integration". And this
LatestVersionMatcher then fails to allow "latest.snapshot" to grab artifacts
w/o module descriptors. (all those old jars that I haven't Ivy-fied yet :)
I will work on developing a patch.
