My basic idea is create ivy.xml file to get artifact from maven2 repository. For example, for hibernate, I create a ivy.xml
<ivy-module version="1.1"> <info organization="hibernate" module="hibernate" revision="3.2"> <dependencies> .... </dependencies> </ivy-module> I will put this ivy.xml to my private server, e.g., "www.myserver.com/ivyrep/hibernate/hibernate/3.2/ivy-3.2.xml" I don't want to put hibernate-3.2.jar file into my repository. I hope ivy could get hibernate jar file from lbiblio maven2 repository as well, like its dependencies. But, whatever I tried, ivy always try to get hibernate jar file from my server. It is quite frustrated. So, my questions are, could ivy use maven2 repository seamless? How? Does ivy.xml file must be deployed with a corresponding jar file? Best, Steve Ni
