Hello Tommy, Lasse and all, as Lasse suggests it *may* be a good fit for classifiers. But I want to emphasize that to my knowledge, the miscellaneous artifacts with different classifiers sharing the same 'main' artifact HAVE TO BE INSTALLED OR DEPLOYED AT THE SAME TIME. So if you deploy your artifacts somewhere, it may be a problem.
If you keep on relying on the version (or artifactId) to differentiate the artifacts, you may also face problems in case you deploy your artifact on a repository to be consumed by others: you will currently produce an invalid pom.xml which is unusable by others. You have to use the flatten maven plugin and configure your build correctly to produce a "patched" pom where the version is replaced. You may find more info here https://maven.apache.org/maven-ci-friendly.html (Maven 3) or in a recent blog post from Karl Heinz Marbaise here for Maven 4 (which do not require flattening the pom): https://blog.soebes.io/posts/2024/03/2024-03-31-maven-4-part-i/ Hope it helps Francois Le dim. 7 avr. 2024 à 19:28, Lasse Lindqvist <lasse.k.lindqv...@gmail.com> a écrit : > Even if putting the bytecode version in the version works, you should > consider using classifier field instead.
