I have a simple Ant/Ivy Java project. (workspace.zip) I want to trigger a build on Jenkins such that it will publish the artifact and the ivy descriptor to the Artifactory after the build.

I have created 3 different type of jobs.

• Job A: an Ivy project
• Job B: free-style software project
• Job C: free-style software project

***********************************************************************

For Job A, i have enabled the "Publish to Artifactory" with "Publish artifacts to Artifactory" checked. You can refer to job-a-config.png.

After the build, it is found that only the build info is published to the Artifactory but not the artifact. (job-a-build-output.png)

***********************************************************************

For Job B, i have enabled the "Ant/Ivy-Artifactory Integration" with "Publish artifacts to Artifactory" checked. You can refer to job-b-config.png.

After the build, it is found that only the build info is published to the Artifactory but not the artifact. (job-b-build-output.png)

***********************************************************************

For Job C, i have enabled the "Generic-Artifactory Integration" with "Published Artifacts" set. You can refer to job-c-config.png.

After the build, the artifact is found in the build folder and it is published to the Artifactory. (job-c-build-output.png)

***********************************************************************

Although i could published the artifact to Artifactory in Job C, i would like to make use of the build features provided by the Ivy Plugin (Job A: job-a-config.png) such that i could have more "Build Triggers" options.

Moreover, i would like to know the reason why the "Publish artifacts to Artifactory" doesn't work in Job A and Job B.

And i would also like to know more about the "Settings file" under "Ivy Module Configuration" in job-a-config.png. What does it referring to?

Thanks for your help.
