Paul Millar created MASSEMBLY-681:
-------------------------------------
Summary: plugin ignores empty finalName and uses default value
Key: MASSEMBLY-681
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-681
Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Paul Millar
Priority: Minor
When used in the 'dir' format, I would argue that an empty finalName is
reasonable.
For example, I would expect the following configuration, with the 'dir' format,
to output the assembled files in ${foo.baseDirectory}
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/foo.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
<outputDirectory>${foo.baseDirectory}</outputDirectory>
<finalName/>
</configuration>
The actual behaviour is to silently ignore the configured empty finalName and
use the default finalName value, which is append this to the outputDirectory.
Arguably there are two bugs here:
finalName is silently ignored (if this is invalid, it should report an
error)
the empty finalName is not honoured.
Specify '.' as the finalName (<finalName>.</finalName>) seems to work as a
work-around, at least for unix-like systems.
