Mark Hobson commented on MASSEMBLY-414: --------------------------------------- Note that this somewhat contradicts: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/examples/single/including-and-excluding-artifacts.html > Allow regular expressions in include/exclude patterns for filesets > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MASSEMBLY-414 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-414 > Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-3 > Reporter: John Casey > Assignee: John Casey > Fix For: 2.2-beta-4 > > > In certain cases, it's very difficult to accomplish the right blend of > inclusions and exclusions for fileSets. For instance, if a project contains > ${basedir}/target and ${basedir}/src/site/resources/examples/target/blah, and > also contains child modules with similar constructs, it can be next to > impossible to include all of the legit sources for the project structure > while at the same time excluding the target directories generated during a > build. > With regex and negative-lookahead, we could handle this case. Therefore, we > should provide some syntax for embedding a regular expression in an > include/exclude pattern. This will help the assembly plugin to generate a > release source bundle for ASF projects. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
