Gil Portenseigne commented on OFBIZ-5464:
-----------------------------------------
Oh, you mean you've already done the POC announced in 12/Jan/14 comment. So first part of my comment is bad indeed... But the remains of it is still my opinion about the overall subject (which i did'nt follow in march... so just have a global idea of the subject, only 2 cents).
> Extend Ivy usage for easier external lib management
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-5464
> URL:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5464> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ALL COMPONENTS, framework
> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Reporter: Pierre Smits
> Attachments: jarfiles.txt
>
>
> Currently Apache Ivy is used to facilitate downloads of specific external jar files for Activemq, mySQL, postgreSQL configuration and Sonar and Cobertura functions.
> However, Apache Ivy can also be for easier management of the standard jars OFBiz is dependent on, in
> - various framework areas
> - various base and special purpose applications/components.
> Applying more ivy functionality will decrease the load on commiters regarding maintenance of (and upgrading) external jars used and required licence information.
