I use dot to convert the dot output to a png image with the following ant
target. I don't remember exactly where I got dot.exe from on the internet, but
the dotExecutable is an variable since it is different depending on which
platform ant is running on.
<target name="report" depends="dependencies.check" description="Generate
report on dependencies in several formats">
<delete dir="${env.BUILD_DIR}/report"/>
<mkdir dir="${env.BUILD_DIR}/report"/>
<ivy:report xml="true" graph="true" dot="true"
todir="${env.BUILD_DIR}/report" conf="${env.DEPENDENCY_CONF}"
outputpattern="[module](.[ext])"/>
<ac:if>
<isset property="dotExecutable"/>
<ac:then>
<exec executable="${dotExecutable}">
<arg line="-T png -o ${env.BUILD_DIR}/report/graph.png
${env.BUILD_DIR}/report/${ivy.module}.dot"/>
</exec>
</ac:then>
</ac:if>
<reportSandboxes/>
<echo message="${line.separator}Report available
at:${line.separator}${env.BUILD_DIR}/report"/>
</target>

Hmmm, what viewer do you use. I downloaded yEd but the view on the generated
graphml is horrible(wish it generated a jpg or something). Do you use a
specific viewer or does that part not work?
Thanks,
Dean

Dean,
Check out the report task. That will list every dependency and build
the "tree" in html.
