Yes thanks for that tip - it did not work until I declared the type in the 
dependency plugin config I use to unpack it as well.

  That can be fixed by using the maven-buildhelper-plugin, which can 
  attach any file to maven's list-of-deployable-files.

  Hi John,
 
  no, the assembly plugin can also generate just one

  single zip file.
  
  I use packaging _pom_ and this plugin def:
 plugin
  artifactIdmaven-assembly-plugin/artifactId
  executions
execution

  goals
goalsingle/goal
  /goals
/execution
  /executions

  On the other hand, there is an older maven zip plugin.

Re: Make META-INF optional

2008-01-29 Thread Simon Kitching
Yes, I would recommend this too.

A jarfile is not just a compressed bundle of files; it is an application or a 
library. Yes, the sun jar specification says that META-INF is optional, but why 
would you ever want to leave it out for an app or a library?

IMO, a compressed bundle of files without any metadata should be a .zip, not a 
.jar.

Specifying pom packaging seems like an abuse, but if it works, then great!

 Hi John,
 
 no, the assembly plugin can also generate just one single zip file.
 I use packaging _pom_ and this plugin def:
plugin
 artifactIdmaven-assembly-plugin/artifactId
 executions
   execution
 phasepackage/phase
 goals
   goalsingle/goal
 /goals
   /execution
 /executions
 configuration
   descriptors
 descriptorsrc/main/assembly/upload.xml/descriptor
   /descriptors
 /configuration
   /plugin
 
 On the other hand, there is an older maven zip plugin.

Did you try to declare the dependency as type zip?

That can be fixed by using the maven-buildhelper-plugin, 
which can attach any file to maven's list-of-deployable-files.

I don't think you can get the timestamp generated in the deploy phase before 
the package phase, in which the artifact is created. I suggest take a look at 
the revision part of the buildnumber plugin. At least, you will be able to see 
from which revision your build was build.
