------------------------------------
Summary: "maxtries" option for maven-jarsigner-plugin
Key: MJARSIGNER-41
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJARSIGNER-41
Project: Maven Jar Signer Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.3.2, 1.4
Reporter: Gene Smith
Priority: Minor
The actual jar signing is usually very reliable exercise in mathematics, which
only fails on external resources.
But connecting to the "Time Stamp Authority" is not no so reliable. When
network issues can cause intermittent failures in jar signing during our long
middle of the night builds it causes, out of size problems for our build
process.
I will present a patch which adds a "maxtries" parameter, to allow for repeated
attempts. I considered but did not add a "retrydelay", as the overhead of the
command process is a non-trivial delay. If whoever applies the patch feels
"retrydelay" is desirable, they can add it.
