John Cheng commented on MASSEMBLY-455:
--------------------------------------
Thanks. That worked.
I tried adding the /assembly/fileSets/fileSet/outputDirectory element into the
example jar-with-dependencies.xml shown in the documentation
(http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/descriptor-refs.html)
and tested it out.
The assembly descriptors in the documentation is definitely different than what
is included in the maven-assembly-plugin-2.2-beta-2.jar. And the actual
descriptors in the jar refers to directories like "target/classes" instead of
${project.build.outputDirectory}.

> The descriptors at
