This is assumed knowledge of how maven works. Maven Repositories hold single artifacts - a directory is not such a thing (unless you wanted an empty directory) The console output should clearly indicate that a directory assembly will not be uploaded to the repository. Think of the directory assembly as a shortcut for you so that you do not need to un-archive the artifact before using it locally after a build has completed. > 4.

As the pom size does not grow in any substantial way. You write everything for assembly in the assembly descriptor. > 6. The suggestion of using the wagon-plugin may help.

You are being given without knowing what you are attempting to do and there may be a simpler option. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
