It is a definitely a bug. Please file a Jira against war plugin

So far it looks to me as if the behavior is intentionally. I made some tests with the classifier giving TestNG the scope compile which forces Maven to add it to the war file which I usually do not (<scope>test<scope> instead) and used <classifier>jdk14</classifier>. I ended up again with a jar file that did not contain the classifier in its name. This lets me conclude that this is an desired behavior. I personally would feel more comfortable if the classifier would remain in the jar file name. It makes it easier to control what is actually in the WEB-INF/lib folder. That removing of the classifier behind the scene is a little bit unexpected and confusing in my view. Is there a way to force Maven (i.e. the responsible plug-in) to keep the jar file classifier while adding jars to the war file? Andreas -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Guther [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 10, 2006 11:43 AM To: Maven Users List Subject: [M2] Classifier removed during packaging I have the following situation with Maven 2, classifier usage, and packaging to a war file: The classified jar file is correctly downloaded from repository but ends in the war file without the classifier part in the jar file name. I.e. in my local repository I get the dependency "something-1.0-classified.jar" downloaded but in the war file I get only "something-1.0.jar". I expected to see the something-1.0-classified.jar file in the war. The strange thing is that our repositories do not contain the classifier-less jar file at all. I went through the Maven debug output of the build process and during the compile phase the file with the classifier is downloaded from the repository and put on the compile path as expected. But during the Assembling the classifier in the name seems to get removed and the debug output reads Processing: something-1.0.jar I am not sure if this behavior is intentional or if I do something wrong. Can someone tell me if this is by design? If not, I at least know that I have to dig more into the issue.
