[jira] Commented: (MASSEMBLY-459) Assembly descriptors should be loaded from standard location.

[jira] Commented: (MASSEMBLY-459) Assembly descriptors should be loaded from standard location.
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-459?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=237096#action_237096 ] Emerson Farrugia commented on MASSEMBLY-459: I'm not sure I follow. If the "src/main/assembly" directory is the advertised location of assembly descriptors, it should probably also be the default location for component descriptors. I fail to see why maven-assembly-plugin file.xml would look for file.xml in ${basedir} instead of in ${basedir}/src/main/assembly. > Assembly descriptors should be loaded from standard location. > - > > Key: MASSEMBLY-459 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-459 > Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement >Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-5 >Reporter: Emerson Farrugia >Assignee: John Casey >Priority: Minor > > The Maven standard directory layout uses "src/main/assembly" as the location > for assembly descriptors. > (http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html) > The maven-assembly-plugin does not search this directory at all (let alone > first) for descriptor files.
