Naming conflicts in spring projects

[bitli]

Hello,
The Spring ivy file

http://ivyroundup.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repo/modules/org.springframework/spring/3.0.1/ivy.xml

create jars named asm, ... etc (without the usual spring- prefix).

But other jars have the same name (typically asm), and this may create
conflicts, especially when we put the jars in the WEB-INF/lib
directory of a war. Although we cannot guarantee that there will be no
conflict, would it not be more reliable and clearer to rename the
libraries using 'spring-' prefix, considering that this is the common
practice?

The correct solution is to not use degenerate filename patterns when retrieving your artifacts. Otherwise you're only sweeping the problem under the rug.

Rights, this was something I overlooked during some changes. Thanks
very much for the prompt answer.
