You can have a jelly taglib that wraps the Ant manifest task. Hmm. Haven't thought of that... I think that jelly or velocity were born for that! I am using velocity at the moment. And want to give to user a chance to provide his own template. Can you take a look at \plugins-build\artifact\src\plugin-resources\templates\manifest.vm? Do you think it is possible to make the same with ant manifest task? Hmm. I'm not sure velocity is the right tool. I think Jelly is much more powerful. What you are simply doing is externalizing the script that creates the manifest. This could be done in the same way with a jelly script called manifest.jelly which could be overridden by the user. Personally I don't think we need that much flexibility. A manifest is a manifest and there is a standard spec for it. So the margin for creactivity is very limited for a manifest!

RE: Recent changes in war plugin
Yes. I am still working on deployer. That's the art which I want to use in this plugin to add missing functionality. Once I am readay with this for war plugin, I am planning to change also other plugins. Last time I am asking: Does anybody has something against building war ___always__ in two distinct steps? a) copying to build area (somewhere in target/ ) b) making a jar archive For this release I want to add inclusion of tld files. This (as any other such changes) requires the duplication of the code between war:war war:webapp goals The other probles is that war:war goal is not extendible in simple way. I myself almost always are writing the preGoal for war:war which does: preGoal name=war:war ant:mkdir dir=${maven.war.src}/ ant:copy todir=${maven.war.src} ant:fileset dir=${basedir}/src/webapp/ /ant:copy /preGoal The change which I am proposing means simpler and shorted plugin's code but also minor performance increase.

Things just won't work the other way. When assembling an EAR, there might be a need to drop the version information from the filename, if the deployment descriptor is written by hand, but if it is generated by maven, the file name might retain the information -- this could pay off later when you recieve a service call and need to determine what is actually running at the client's system. The application server driving plugin might want to drop the version information during deployment/redeployment but I don't see why that would be neccessary.

I thought that we voted on this and decided that a war qould remained unversioned for easy deployment, but there would be a property to switch it to a versioned war.
