Nicolas Lalevée commented on IVY-1352:
--------------------------------------

Your patch looks interesting.

I see that you have implemented a specific resolver. I guess you don't need to. 
You just need to register your parser into the typedef.properties file, just 
like you did for the CUDF resolver. Then every existing resolver while be able 
to work with a repository which contains cudf files.

About the intent here. Has it been implemented so Ivy would be able to read an 
existing CUDF repository somewhere ? Or it is 'just' to suggested another more 
humain friendly format than xml ?

And just to be sure I understand this well (I didn't knew about the CUDF format 
until 10 minutes ago). The CUDF format seems to be quite liberal. Though the 
suggested CUDFParser here is expecting some properties in order to work 
properly, right ? If so at some point we'll need a documentation about it. But 
that's not a blocker to have this patch applied.

> I developed a resolver for ivy using a cudf input format to determine the 
> dependencies of a module.
> The CUDF format is used by debian packet management. It is a plain text 
> file/stream which describes dependencies of a module, using a specific 
> version format (only integer). It is fully upgradable/customizable.
