Dan Tran commented on MASSEMBLY-62: ----------------------------------- Entry into each subassembly is a filename relative to ${basedir}. User can specify fullpath. The DependencySets, FileSets, and FileItems if each subassembly will be appended to the main one, the Assembly itself. Parsing and processing of subassemblies should not be any different from the main one. To go into details, the Assembly will have 3 sections Assembly // Header id formats includeBaseDirectory includeSiteDirectory // Body List of DependencySet List of FileItems List of FileSets List of SubAssemblyDescriptor SubAssemblyDescriptorFileName List of DependencySet <--------- This subassembly will be appended to the main Body when we loadup the Assembly List of FileItems List of FileSets In this case, I can have a bunch of fixed sub assemblies that main assembly can pick and ad its own in the body. This is the same concept of installanywhere where they call Components ( vs subassembly) Sorry I am not sure how to visualize the single <parentDescriptor> concept, Are you suggesting inheritent set? > Ability to share DependencySets, FileSets, FileItems > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MASSEMBLY-62 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-62 > Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin > Type: New Feature > Versions: 2.0 > Environment: xp, linux > Reporter: Dan Tran > > > My assembly project can produce multiple assemblies thru mutliple > descriptors.
