Piotr Tabor commented on MWAR-80: --------------------------------- It is still true. When configuration is: " <artifactId>zzz</artifactId> ... <configuration> <classifier>fine</classifies> <archiveClasses>true</archiveClasses> </configuration> as a result we will get: zzz-fine.war but also: *zzz-fine.war/WEB-INF/lib/zzz.jar* It is probably "by design". So I think that there are two possibilities: a) to add to documentation comment about it and close the bug b) to add new parameter - for example <achiveClassesClassifier>bad<achiveClassesClassifier> which will create: *zzz-fine.war/WEB-INF/lib/zzz-bad.jar*. If it's useful (actually I don't see any use case for that stuff), I can prepare a patch. > Classifier in jar file name is removed once assembled into war file > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MWAR-80 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-80 > Project: Maven 2.x War Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Environment: Maven 2.0.4, JDK 1.5, maven-war-plugin version 2.0 > Reporter: Andreas Guther > > We use the Maven classifier to distinguish between different jar files of the > same version build for different purposes. An example would be the > classifier used for TestNG to distinguish between jdk15 and jdk14 jar files. > I noticed that the jar file (for example test-1.0-classifier.jar) ends up in > the WEB-INF/lib folder with the classifier removed (i.e. following the > example test.1.0.jar). > This is unexpected and confusing. Since there is very little documentation > about the expected behavior while using classifiers, it is not clear if this > is intenionally or a bug. > If intenionally, it should be mentioned in the maven-war-plugin > documentation. Maybe in that case it would be an enhancement to configure if > the classifier should be preserved or removed. > However, the current behavior is undocumented and unexpected. -- 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
