------------------------------------
Summary: Unnecessary warning when parent ivy.xml is located using
resolvers rather than a location attribute on the extends element
Key: IVY-1346
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1346
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.2.0
Reporter: Matthew R Hurne
Priority: Minor
When using an {{<extends>}} element without a {{location}} attribute an
unnecessary warning is output stating that {{../ivy.xml}} could not be parsed
(unless there is in fact a file {{../ivy.xml}} relative to the {{ivy.xml}} that
contains the {{<extends>}}).
For example:
{noformat}
...
<info organisation="foo" module="bar" revision="1.0" status="integration">
<extends organisation="foo" module="parent" revision="1.0.0" />
</info>
...
{noformat}
{noformat}
[ivy:resolve] Unable to parse included ivy file ../ivy.xml:
D:\project\component\ivy.xml
(The system cannot find the file specified) in
file:/D:/project/component/ivy.xml
{noformat}
{{XmlModuleDescriptorParser.extendsStarted()}} is the source of the warning.
If no {{location}} was specified on the {{<extends>}} it uses a default
location of {{../ivy.xml}}. It then attempts to find and use the
{{../ivy.xml}} location, and only falls back to resolving the parent descriptor
if {{../ivy.xml}} doesn't exist or if its {{ModuleId}} is not what is expected.
The behavior is sensible and I do not suggest that it be changed. However, it
would be nice if the warning that {{../ivy.xml}} could not be parsed were
suppressed when that file is being used as a default. The warning would still
be appropriate if {{location="../ivy.xml"}} were explicitly included in the
{{<extends>}} element.
