David Leangen commented on PAXRUNNER-164: ----------------------------------------- So is that a "no"? > Removing version number from jar file when distributing > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PAXRUNNER-164 > URL: http://issues.ops4j.org/jira/browse/PAXRUNNER-164 > Project: Pax Runner > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: David Leangen > Assignee: Alin Dreghiciu > Priority: Minor > > Just wondering something... > Would it be possible to remove the version number from the jar file when > creating a distribution of pax-runner. The reason is this: > When I install pax-runner to my file system, the directory structure looks > like this: > $PAX_HOME > pax-runner-$VERSION > bin > pax-run > pax-run.bat > pax-runner-$VERSION.jar > What I like to do is create a symbolic link in $PAX_HOME called "pax-runner" > that points to the current pax-runner directory. This way, to update my > pax-runner, all I need to do is copy the new files and update by symbolic > link. > Because, however, the jar holds the version number, this means that in > addition to having to update just my symbolic link, I also have to update any > scripts I have that make use of pax-runner, which is not a nice thing to have > to do. > So, it would be really nice to change pax-runner-$VERSION.jar to just > pax-runner.jar. > Thank you! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.ops4j.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira _______________________________________________ general mailing list general@lists.ops4j.org http://lists.ops4j.org/mailman/listinfo/general
