Wait a minute... that's not right. The "->default" in <dependency org="project1" name="module1" rev="1.0" conf="inhouse-jars->default"/>
means that for the module1 dependency use the named "default" config in the module1's ivy file. Most likely this config will get the module1.jar + any of it's runtime dependencies, but it depends on module1's ivy.xml so the "inhouse-jars" part points to your config, the "default" part refers to module1's config. -----Original Message----- From: malepati [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, August 12, 2009 10:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: configurations Hi Jorge, "->default" means you are storing dependencies in library folder . Example:If you have a dependency called "junit.jar" and when you run the build junit.jar will store in ".lib" folder.In this context your library folder structure looks like: .lib !_junit.jar !_apache.jar !_jdbc.jar !_odbc14.jar When you want to divide your dependencies by category wise you can change "->default". Example: <configurations> <conf name="third-party" description="lists all third-party libraries"/> <conf name="inhouse-jars" description="lists all your hand made dependencies"/> </configurations> and you define dependency like this: <dependency org="project1" name="module1" rev="1.0" conf="inhouse-jars->default"/> <dependency org="apache" name="apache" rev="1.0" conf="third-party->default"/> In the above context your library folder structure will be as follows: .libs ! !_inhouse-jars ! ! ! !__module1.jar ! !_third-party ! !_apache.jar !_jdbc.jar So this is to define your Library folder structure. Hope this helped you a basic idea. --Kumar Jorge Saridis wrote: > > I'm new to ivy. In the "dependency" tag there is an attribute "conf", I'm > supposed to put there de configuration name.
