Nicolas Lalevée commented on IVYDE-265:
---------------------------------------
1. How do you resolve commons-lang ? Could you provide its ivy.xml ?
2. I already forgot about this additional metadata idea, thanks for the
reminder and the proposal. I have created IVYDE-267
> Ivy DE does not associate source artifacts with extensions other than '.zip'
> to associated binaries & it also does not associate source artifacts with
> names other than the binary artifacts, in Eclipse

> Key: IVYDE-265
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVYDE-265
> Project: IvyDE
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: classpath container
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Environment: Eclipse IDE (J2EE version) 3.6 (Helios)
> Reporter: Gerard Fernandes
> Priority: Minor
>
> IvyDE does not associate source artifacts to binaries within Eclipse in the
> following cases:
> 1. when the source artifact has an extension other than '.zip' : e.g.
> commons-lang-2.5, which has a source extension of '.jar'. Many artifacts
> follow this convention - so this is quite an irritant, having to rename
> artifacts just because IvyDE can not associate them correctly.
> 2. when the source artifact has a different name than the binary - e.g. in
> the case of JUnit, where JUnit delivers junit-2.8.2-src.jar, which is common
> for 2 binary artifacts: junit-2.8.2.jar and junit-2.8.2-dep.jar. The source
> jar is a superset, covering both binaries. So, while this case is unusual,
> IvyDE should support associating super-set source artifacts to binaries with
> potentially different names within Eclipse.
> Note that both are possible manually in Eclipse (without IvyDE). Therefore
> these cases should be covered by IvyDE transparently to the user.
