Laird Nelson created MASSEMBLY-620: -------------------------------------- Summary: The dependencySet/includes/include format is documented incorrectly Key: MASSEMBLY-620 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-620 Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.3 Reporter: Laird Nelson
The proper format for {{<include>}} elements should be: {code} groupId:artifactId:type:classifier[:version] {code} The [documentation|http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly.html#class_dependencySet] given by the {{maven-assembly-plugin}} says (incorrectly): {quote} Artifact coordinatess may be given in simple groupId:artifactId form, or they may be fully qualified in the form groupId:artifactId:type:version[:classifier]. {quote} Additionally, the Sonatype book [says|http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnref-book/reference/assemblies-sect-controlling-contents.html#assemblies-sect-fine-tune] (incorrectly? or maybe just confusingly): {quote} groupId:artifactId:type[:classifier]:version - full artifact identity If you need to get really specific, you can specify all the coordinates. {quote} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
