John Casey commented on MASSEMBLY-336:
--------------------------------------
Please add a test project so we can incorporate it in the integration tests.
> Flag to inline POM dependencies in DependencySets
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MASSEMBLY-336
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-336
> Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2
> Reporter: Joerg Schaible
> Attachments: MASSEMBLY-336-1.patch, MASSEMBLY-336.patch
>
>
> We use the assembly plugin to generate a general distribution of our product
> by packaging a lot of "final" artifacts non-transitively. Works fine.
> However, for some project specific distributions we need to drop some of the
> artifacts and add some others. However, in this case we must now repeat the
> complete unchanged dependencies in the project specific version.
> We came up with a solution using the POM as dependency to get all the
> standard artifacts and declare a runtime dep to this POM in the project
> specific distribution (with exclusions). Unfortunately in this case we can
> now use neither a DependencySet without transitive dependencies (then we will
> include the dependent POM only) nor with complete transitive deps, since then
> we will not only include the "final" deps of the general distribution, but
> their transitive dependencies also.
> Therefore we patched the assembly plugin to support a new flag
> "inlinePomDependencies" that forces the plugin to handle a POM dependency as
> if the dependencies of the dependent POM had been declared directly in the
> current one. If the DependencySet is collecting all transitive deps, the
> resulting archive will simply not contain all dependent artifacts of type
> "pom", if the DependencySet is collecting direct dependencies only, it will
> also include all direct dependencies of the transitive dependencies of type
> "pom".
