Overrides.xml not applied on jars for which no dependency resolver returned a result #120

Closed davidfestal closed 9 years ago

davidfestal commented 9 years ago

For a simple Jar with no descriptor at all, no dependency resolver suceeds in return a ModuleInfo. In this case, the Overrides rules are not applied. It's a pity, because (in case of flat repo for example), this would give the opportunity to add dependencies.

Had to revert your change because it breaks the contract of that method and the CeylonToolProvider tests. If you give me more info about the feature, and a way to test it, I can help. What we do for modules which have no module descriptor in a flat classpath is to add a module descriptor for them rather than an overrides, in another flat repo. Would that help for your use-case?
