------------------------------------
Summary: Allow definition of path in ivy module files
Key: EASYANT-60
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EASYANT-60
Project: EasyAnt
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 0.9
Reporter: Jérôme Leroux
Priority: Minor
Currently, in ea:build tags we can define properties with ea:property to
customize the definition of the module to build.
It would be convenient to allow the definition of path with ea:path directly in
these module files.
I don't know if this kind of feature respect the philosophy of EasyAnt. EasyAnt
build system is strongly based on naming convention for the definition of the
files to compile. Even if this is very convenient for most of the projects,
this does not permit to compile a project with sources dispatched in several
folder.
Currently, the solution is to write an Ant file above the module file to define
the path. The definition of a path directly in the ivy module can address this
kind of issues easi(ant)ly.
The implementation may not be as trivial as definition of properties. I know
that the propagation of data types in Ant may be a little tricky.
