Gintas Grigelionis commented on IVY-643:
----------------------------------------
Commons VFS core is stuck with ancient Jackrabbit, because the latter moved to
Java 7 and HttpClient 4. There's an open issue, VFS-360, about the upgrade to
HttpClient 4. Then Jackrabbit update is trivial (no changes in API AFAICS).
> Ship Ivy with commons-vfs-sandbox.jar, because it provides the WebDAV support

> Key: IVY-643
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-643
> Project: Ivy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha-2
> Reporter: Ivan "Rambius" Ivanov
>
> The commons-vfs project has been split into commons-vfs.jar and
> commons-vfs-sandbox.jar. The webdav support is provided by
> commons-vfs-sandbox.jar, see http://commons.apache.org/vfs/index.html : "Due
> to some technical reasons we had to move the webdav and jcifs (smb)
> filesystem to the sandbox. So if you need one of these filesystems you have
> to build VFS manually."
> Ivy does not come with commons-vfs-sandbox.jar and I believe it should in
> order to prevent its users from the hassle of building commons-vfs
> themselves. I myself built it from commons-vfs 1.0 source.
