Could somebody post how I might copy an artifact to a flat directory during the deploy phase? Would this need to call out to ant or is their a mojo in maven that can achieve the same aim?
The rationale is to have a directory where jars can be run directly if their dependencies are specified in the Classpath attribute in the manifest file. With the current repository directory structure artifacts which include classpath entries can't really be used 'in situ' as the directory structure of the repository prevents artifacts from 'seeing' each other. Manually copying the files to one directory fixes the problem but is a bit cludgy and has to be rerun. Also I guess there is a side question- is there a more elegant way of achieving the same aim other than to put all artifacts into one juge directory? I'm aware of jar-with-dependencies using the assembly plugin but this seems like overkill.
