Nicolas Lalevée commented on IVYDE-305:
---------------------------------------
If Eclipse is holding a lock on it, it is probably that is doing something with
it. Do you have anything running in Eclipse which depends on that jars ? Did
you do something like opening a file in that jar ? Or anything that would look
like actively "using" the jar ?
> Cannot delete outdated snapshot artifact from cache
> ---------------------------------------------------

> Key: IVYDE-305
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVYDE-305
> Project: IvyDE
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: workspace resolver
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0.beta1
> Environment: Windows XP
> Eclipse Indigo
> Reporter: Adam Lewandowski
>
> If I declare a dependency on a snapshot revision of a module (with
> changingPattern=".*SNAPSHOT"), IvyDE is unable to retrieve the updated
> version into the cache if the artifact in the repository is updated after the
> initial resolve in Eclipse. Command-line ant builds also fail in this
> situation.
> It appears as though Eclipse is holding a lock on the jar file in the cache,
> which I believe is a Windows-only problem. Using something like Process
> Explorer to kill the file handle allows the resolve to succeed, but it's
> really annoying to have to do that and I don't think the average user would
> even know to do it. Since IvyDE is running in
> Eclipse, is there a way to have it release the lock on the jar before
> updating?
> Also, IvyDE reports this (somewhat misleadingly) as a module not being found:
> "Impossible to resolve dependencies of myOrg#myMod;1.0
> unresolved dependency: depOrg#depMod;1.0.SNAPSHOT: not found"
> In the Ivy Console (and if you attempt to resolve in a command-line ant
> build), you get a more accurate error message:
> "Couldn't delete outdated artifact from cache: C:\Documents and
> Settings\MYUSER\.ivy2\cache\depOrg\depMod\jars\depMod-1.0.SNAPSHOT.jar"
