The Repository is a Read-only file system. We use this for buildtime and also running production programs.
WE cannot use the cache for production programs (I build and create a runscript which a prod system uses but is pointing to stuff in my cache. I delete that cache.) It must reference the RO FS. So It has to be on our RO file system. Unfortunatly Some projects have been placed in a non-standrad way. This is either due to ignorance or limitations of the programs we were installing. Thus we want to force everything to be origin. I have a work around for this working currently. Simply we have a trigger that looks for runtime and then creates an extra path called runtime_script_path when cachepath=runtime. I make sure the origin for everything is put in that and that is what gets written to the runtime_script_path not the 'runtime' created by standard. Maybe my use case is rare but It would be nice to have that option built into ivy as it would also speed up our resolutions :) Many thanks, Alex Foreman Morgan Stanley | Technology 20 Cabot Square | Canary Wharf | Floor 06 London, E14 4QW Phone: +44 20 7677-5732 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 17 September 2008 10:12 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: URL=.... Behaviour "We have a standard resolver where 90% of our projects exist in the correct place. 10% of projects are in the same filesystem but not standardly placed. We cannot change the place they exist at. So anything unstandard is located via a url="file://....." link for the artifact. We wish to use there origin location rarther than the place in the cache." Can you explain why you have the requirement of non-standard locations ? At first glance this could make builds quite fragile - why can't you publish stuff off the file system into a repository and then use the cached version after you do a resolve ?
