abstract fun withXml(action: Action<in XmlProvider>): Unit

Allow configuration of the descriptor, after it has been generated according to the input data.

 apply plugin: "ivy-publish" publishing { publications { ivy(IvyPublication) { descriptor { withXml { asNode().dependencies.dependency.find { it.@org == "junit" }.@rev = "4.10" } } } } } 
Note that due to Gradle's internal type conversion system, you can pass a Groovy closure to this method and it will be automatically converted to an Action.

Each action/closure passed to this method will be stored as a callback, and executed when the publication that this descriptor is attached to is published.

For details on the structure of the XML to be modified, see the Ivy Module Descriptor reference.
