Description

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.
