Workspace resolver does not force transitive workspace dependencies
-------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: IVYDE-225
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVYDE-225
             Project: IvyDE
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: workspace resolver
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.final
            Reporter: Jeffrey Sinclair
            Priority: Minor


Take the following use-case (all projects are in the workspace):

* Project A -> Project B -> Project C.
* Project A -> Project C.
   
Now lets assume that Project A has resolve in workspace turned on. The 
expectation is that Project C should be resolved from the workspace. However if 
Project B does not have resolve in workspace enabled and can resolve Project C 
using a different resolver, then there is a chance that Project A will use B's 
resolved location of C instead of from the workspace.

My current thinking is that the workspace resolver should behave _as-if_ a 
<modules> section had been added to Project A's ivysettings.xml file 
specifying that the workspace resolver should be used for Project C if Project 
C exists in the workspace. If this view is taken then this is a bug in the 
workspace resolver.
