| Container for conflict manager elements, used to indicate how conflicts should be resolved |
| for this module. <br/><br/> |
| |
| The list of built-in conflict managers available is listed on the [[settings/conflict-managers conflict manager configuration page]].<br/><br/> |
| |
| Conflicts manager are used during the resolve operation, i.e. when ivy analyse the graph of dependencies |
| and download corresponding ivy files and artifacts. The fact to manage conflict at resolve time |
| enables to minimize downloads: when a module is evicted by a conflict manager, it is not downloaded.<br/><br/> |
| |
| There are two things optimized during conflict resolution: download of artifacts and download |
| of ivy files. The first is always ensured by ivy, i.e. artifacts of a module evicted will never |
| be downloaded. The second is not as simple to handle because to know what are the conflicts |
| ivy needs to know the dependency graph, and to know the dependency graph, it has to download |
| ivy files. But ivy is highly optimized on this too, and it tries to evict modules as soon as possible.<br/> |
| That's why the order of dependencies is important for download optimization. Indeed ivy |
| traverses the dependency graph in the order in which dependencies are declared in the ivy files, |
| and each time it encounters a dependency on a module, it first check if there is a conflict on this module, |
| and if this is the case, it asks the conflict manager to resolve the conflict. Then if the module is evicted, |
| it does not download its ivy file, and the whole branch is not traversed, which can saves |
| a lot of time.<br/><br/> |
| |
| If this container is not present, a default conflict manager is used for all modules. |
| The current default conflict manager is the "latest-revision" conflict manager. |
