Is cachepath the preferred way to do this? The docs seem to suggest otherwise:
"Please prefer the use of retrieve + standard ant path creation, which make your build more independent from ivy (once artifacts are properly retrieved, ivy is not required any more)." This almost sounds like it is deprecated, otherwise I would be using it more. -----Original Message----- From: Maarten Coene [mailto:maarten_co...@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, January 01, 2009 5:58 AM To: ivy-u...@ant.apache.org Subject: Re: how to put the artifacts in ant classpath?

I'm new to ivy and I'm stuck with a very presumably simple issue. I've set ivy to retrieve all the artifacts (jars) using the following patterns: ivyPattern="[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/ivy.xml" artifactPattern="[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[artifact].[ext]" After all the jars are downloaded into the ivy cache directory, how am I supposed to include them in the classpath in the ant java task? The jars are each in their own sub-directories rather than put in a flat directory. I've searched on the forum for this topic and it turned out that I should make use of ivy:cachepath, but somehow it didn't quite work for me. maybe I'm missing something important? Could anyone please let show me the correct solution?
