One of these is a large C# UI component library that comprises 100+ DLLs. In reality we only need about 10-15 of those DLLs but we sometimes need additional ones added as we use new functionality. This isn't a version change as the version of the library we use doesn't change, we just add additional DLLs to an existing version. If I just drop the relevant DLLs in the repository area and update the relevant ivy.xml. But then when I try to build a project which depends on these new DLLs it fails because it doesn't realise I have changed the contents of an existing version (that version will already be in the local ivy cache) so it doesn't download the new files from the repository. Is there any setting/command I can use to force Ivy to do a check of the ivy.xml descriptors in the repository and, if anything has changed, refresh that library. We can do a clean of the ivy cache but it's a bit painful for developers who connect over the VPN, can take quite a while to re-downloaded everything. I'm using ant 1.7.1 and ivy 2.1.0RC2. Any suggestions appreciated. Cheers. Mike.
