[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-38?page=comments#action_67287 ]
Mike Perham commented on MJAR-38: --------------------------------- I'm giving up on this because it is simply too difficult to get changes to maven-archiver approved at this point because it is part of maven core and 2.0.x is locked down pretty tight at this point. maven-archiver is moving out of maven core for 2.1 so hopefully it will become a little easier to change and we can get the patch in the 2.1 release. > Maven Puts Arbitrary Extension Definition in JAR Manifest by Default. > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MJAR-38 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-38 > Project: Maven 2.x Jar Plugin > Type: Bug > Versions: 2.0 > Environment: Maven version: 2.0.4 > Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] > Reporter: Steven Coco > Attachments: Jar Extension-Name Tester.zip, MJAR-38.patch > > > I'm using the latest Maven release. When I build my project, the > resulting Jar file's manifest contains an Extension-Name attribute along with > Specification and Implementation attributes. The POM contains no mention > that this project is a Java optional package -- an "extension" (or an > extension of any other kind). > I don't know why Maven is doing that. > If Maven is doing this by default for some reason, it absolutely > shouldn't. Maven should not identify my Jar as an optional package unless I > explicitly say so. Jars are only extensions if explicitly created as such. > The name it uses for the extension name is the POM's <artifactId>. > That's not even a UID! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
