Description

We've encountered resolution failures within Eclipse when the following conditions are met. Although we haven't tried all combinations, it seems to fit together based upon anecdotal evidence.

• The project publishing an artifact A exists in the Eclipse workspace.
• A second project B is also in the workspace and depends upon project A. The dependency includes the artifact sub-element within the dependency element.
• The rev isn't hard-coded.

Example fragment of ivy.xml:
<dependency org="com.myco" name="xyz" rev="latest.${release.type}"
transitive="false" conf="myco-shared, compile->default">
<artifact name="com.myco.xyz" type="jar"/>
</dependency>

We know the resolution works when any of these occur:

• The artifact sub-element is removed.
• The project dependee is closed/removed from workspace.
• rev is changed to a hard-coded value such as "latest.integration".
