Ant Ivy 不会设置编译类路径

Question

Everything I've read online says I'm doing this right, but Ant/Ivy refuse to set my compile class path. Here's my ivy.xml :

<ivy-module version="2.0">
    <info organisation="com.latencyzero.missiondb" module="webapp"/>

    <configurations defaultconfmapping="runtime->*">
        <conf name="compile" visibility="public" description="this is the default scope, used if none is specified. Compile dependencies are available in all classpaths."/>
        <conf name="provided" visibility="public" description="this is much like compile, but indicates you expect the JDK or a container to provide it. It is only available on the compilation classpath, and is not transitive."/>
        <conf name="runtime" visibility="public" description="this scope indicates that the dependency is not required for compilation, but is for execution. It is in the runtime and test classpaths, but not the compile classpath." extends="compile"/>
        <conf name="test" visibility="private" description="this scope indicates that the dependency is not required for normal use of the application, and is only available for the test compilation and execution phases." extends="runtime"/>
    </configurations>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency org="org.apache.logging.log4j"              name="log4j"                        rev="2.13.3"            conf="compile->default"/>
    </dependencies>
</ivy-module>

And the relevant portions of build.xml :

    <target name="resolve" description="==> retrieve dependencies with Ivy">
        <ivy:retrieve/>

        <ivy:cachepath pathid="compile.classpath" conf="compile" />
    </target>
    <target name="compile" depends="resolve" description="==> Compile Java sources">
        <mkdir  dir="${obj}"/>

        <javac  destdir="${obj}"
                source="${sourceVersion}"
                target="${targetClassVersion}"
                encoding="UTF-8"
                deprecation="${deprecation}"
                nowarn="${suppressWarnings}"
                debug="on"
                listfiles="false"
                includeantruntime="false">
            <classpath refid="compile.classpath"/>

            <src path="${common}"/>
            <src path="${src}"/>
        </javac>
    </target>

When I run ant -v compile , it downloads the log4j.jar file, and then ignores it:

[ivy:retrieve] :: Apache Ivy 2.4.0 - 20141213170938 :: http://ant.apache.org/ivy/ ::

    [javac] 
    [javac] Files to be compiled:

    [javac] import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;
    [javac]                                ^

Notice the classpath only has the target directory, and no jars. I must be missing something obvious, but I sure can't see it.

Answer 1

So, it turns out the dependencies I should have specified were:

<dependency org="org.apache.logging.log4j" name="log4j-api" rev="2.13.3">
    <exclude module="log4j-api-java9"/>
</dependency>

And I need the exclude in there or Ivy fails trying to download a module that doesn't exist.

It also seems that Ivy is buggy when it comes to transitive dependencies, so I gave up on it and switched to Maven.
