Carsten Pfeiffer created IVYDE-326:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Support for variables in the retrieve pattern
Key: IVYDE-326
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVYDE-326
Project: IvyDE
Issue Type: Wish
Components: classpath container
Affects Versions: 2.2.0.beta1
Reporter: Carsten Pfeiffer
The retrieve pattern for the classpath container appears to be strictly
relative to the project.
In Ivy/ant, it is possible to specify something like
{code}
${some.dir}/lib/[organisation]/[artifact]-[revision](-[classifier]).[ext]
{code}
We would like to use the same in IvyDE, e.g. utilizing Eclipse variable
substitution mechanism so that you could use
${env_var:SOME_HOME}/lib/[organisation]/[artifact]-[revision](-[classifier]).[ext]
Doing this relative to the project e.g. with
../../../lib/[organisation]/[artifact]-[revision](-[classifier]).[ext]
would be too fragile as it would break as soon as a project is moved in the
directory hierarchy.
