MANIFEST.MF is not used when specified in configuration for a WAR format
assembly
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-332
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-332
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2
Reporter: Julien Simon
Priority: Minor
Attachments: maven_project.zip
When you try to specify a manifestFile for an assembly with *war* format, the
manifest file specified is not used.
I have attached a zip archive which contains a maven project that reproduces
the bug. The assembly generated during the package phase and named
myArtifactId-1.0.0-source.war contains a manifest file, but not the one
specified in the maven-assembly-plugin configuration in the pom.
I tried different versions 2.1 and 2.2-beta-2 with jar and war assembly
formats, here's the behavior description:
maven-assembly *2.1* + *war* assembly format >>>>>>> good manifest
file included
maven-assembly *2.2-beta-2* +*war* assembly format >>>>>>> empty manifest file
maven-assembly *2.1* + *jar* assembly format >>>>>>> good
manifest file included
maven-assembly *2.2-beta-2* + *jar* assembly format >>>>>>> good manifest
file included
The workaround is to use version 2.1 of the maven-assembly-plugin.
