Support 'store-only' (no-compression) jar files
-----------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-227
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-227
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Chris Beams
Priority: Minor
the jar utility supports a -0 option that, when supplied, skips zip compression
for the resulting jar file. This is desirable when creating jar dependencies
that consist of large binary files - one wants access to the binaries to be as
fast as possible at runtime with no decompression overhead.
jdcasey tells me that there's an option on the underlying library to skip
compression, but that it's not configurable on the assembly plugin itself.
With that in mind, hopefully this is just a matter of exposing functionality
rather than implementing it anew.
Thanks,
- Chris
