Nicolas Lalevée commented on IVYDE-247:
---------------------------------------
The root of the issue is that ${project_loc} depends of the current selection
in the workspace. Eclipse's message is about that: "Underlying error
(org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException): Variable references empty selection:
${project_loc}"
If you launch an Ivy resolve by selecting the project, it will effectively
resolve correctly. Try on IvyDE's container, you will see that it fails just
like the reverse dependency explorer.
I googled and I found that: http://blog.samratdhillon.com/archives/473
I understand though your usecase. I haven't found a way to properly do it with
just Eclipse variables. If you do I would be glad to hear about.
Maybe IvyDE could do the substitution itself has it does know in which project
the resolve does happen. But I would be worried about overriding Eclipse
standard behavior about variables.

> Project: IvyDE
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: workspace resolver
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Environment: Windows 7, Eclipse 3.5.2
> Reporter: Marc Batchelor
>
> 1- At workspace level (window->Preferences->Ivy->Settings), set "Ivy Settings
> Path" and "Property Files" as follows:
> Ivy Settings path: ${project_loc}/ivysettings.xml
> Property Files: ${project_loc}/build.properties
> 2- Have a project with dependencies
> 3- Right click on the project and resolve to make sure that it results
> properly
> 4- Right-click on this project and try "Show In Reverse Dependency Tree" - an
> exception happens:
> Unable to find a module descriptor associated with
> D:/workspace/project/ivy.xml
> Error while resolving the ivy instance for ivy.xml in
> 'project':
> Unrecognized variables in the Ivy settings file
> ${project_loc}/ivysettings.xml
