------------------------------------------
Summary: Enhance documentation of install-file
Key: MINSTALL-95
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MINSTALL-95
Project: Maven 2.x Install Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Stephen Colebourne
Priority: Minor
When you want to install a pre-built third party jar file into a local repo
google will [point
you|https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=maven+install+artifact&ie=utf-8] at these
pages:
* http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-3rd-party-jars-local.html
*
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-install-plugin/examples/specific-local-repo.html
Neither of these pages explains what to do if you have a pom that you want to
deploy as well as the jar file. The right answer is already documented here:
*
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-install-plugin/examples/custom-pom-installation.html
Please enhance the documentation in two ways:
* enhance the
[mini-guide|http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-3rd-party-jars-local.html]
to include an example with a pom
* enhance the [plugin
guides|http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-install-plugin/examples/specific-local-repo.html]
to provide cross-links between the individual pages. ie, after the example at
links along the lines of "if you want to install a pom as well click here" etc.
