Use local Ivy resolution with vendor jars

I have vendor jars from IBM (4 jars starting with com.ibm.mq*) I am trying to just publish them to my local ivy cache to use in several projects.

IVY.XML 

<ivy-module version="2.0">
  <info organisation="com.ibm" module="com.ibm.mq" />
  <publications>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq" type="jar" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq" type="javadoc" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq" type="source" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.commonservices" type="jar" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.commonservices" type="javadoc" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.commonservices" type="source" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.headers" type="jar" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.headers" type="javadoc" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.headers" type="source" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.jmqi" type="jar" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.jmqi" type="javadoc" ext="jar"/>
    <artifact name="com.ibm.mq.jmqi" type="source" ext="jar"/>
  </publications>
  <dependencies>
  </dependencies>
</ivy-module>

And my jars are named:

laptop: ls jars |  sed 's/^/    /' 
com.ibm.mq-7.5.0.2.jar
com.ibm.mq.commonservices-7.5.0.2.jar
com.ibm.mq.headers-7.5.0.2.jar
com.ibm.mq.jmqi-7.5.0.2.jar

But the publish fails with:

Buildfile: C:\Users\alan\Workspace-Eclipse\IBM-MQ\build.xml

publish:

Solution

  • Alternatively you could use a filesystem resolver and avoid the need to publish the jars.
