Problem with Xalan-2.7.1 and ivyroundup
Hi I don't know if this a bug in ivyde, a bug in ivyroundup or a problem with my dependency management (I suspect the latter) I've got a dependency on xalan-j which I'm getting from ivyroundup. However, the xalan-j entry in my cache has the xml-apis-2.7.1 jar in it Somewhere else in my project there's a xml-apis-2.9.1 dependency. I'm using a configuration called 'web' to retrieve the jars required to be in the web app into the war/WEB-INF/lib folder I'm doing this with the retrieve tab in IvyDE However, although the dependency report says that xml-apis-2.7.1 is evicted, its still turning up in the lib folder, together with the 2.9.1 version. Generally speaking its a very bad idea to have to versions of the same jar in the lib folder! Here's the line in the ivy.xml file which pulls in the xalan-j - I've set transitive="false" but thats having no effect - mainly because I think that the xml-api jar is not actually a dependency of xalan but rather part of the module. Can anyone suggest how to fix this (short of just deleting the offending jar each time.) Also, looking at http://ivyroundup.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repo/modules/org.apache.xml/xalan-j/2.7.1/ivy.xml why are the xml-api jars showing up at all? the conf 'interp' should only pull in xalan? Thanks Alan

Yes, silly me, I should have seen that. However, doesn't that mean that xml-apis-2.7.1 will always be pulled in?

Not sure about your other questions, but this is happening because the config 'interp' extends the config 'xml-apis'... -Archie -- Archie L.
