In assembly plugin, specify descriptor on CL via -Dmaven.assembly.descriptor 
doesn't work
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1680
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1680
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Bug
  Components: maven-assembly-plugin, documentation - guides  
    Versions: 2.0    
 Environment: OSX 10.4.3, java 1.4.2_09
    Reporter: Julian Wood
    Priority: Minor
     Fix For: 2.0.1


There seems to be a problem with the descriptor variable needed for specifying 
the assembly. Is it maven.assembly.descriptor or just descriptor?

mvn assembly:assembly -Dmaven.assembly.descriptor=src/main/assembly/bin.xml

fails with:

[INFO] [assembly:assembly]
[INFO] 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] You must specify descriptor or descriptorId
[INFO]

[DEBUG] Trace

descriptorId

        at 
org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeStandaloneGoal(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:482)

while:

mvn assembly:assembly -Ddescriptor=src/main/assembly/bin.xml

works fine. So either a bug in the assembly plugin, or a problem with the 
mini-guide:

Thanks,
