Okay - after some google codesearching, and minimal testing, the following appears to address the problem:
In the execute() of the Mojo for the goal which precedes the jar:jar one, add the following: project.getArtifact().setArtifactHandler(new MyArtifactHandler()); where MyArtifactHandler is defined as extending org.apache.maven.artifact.handler.DefaultArtifactHandler, so as to override the getLanguage() method with a version which returns "java". One or two pom.xml mods are also required, to ensure that ".jar" is used instead of .${project.packaging}. Please could anyone knowledgeable comment on the above. I don't remember seeing this in any instructions for writing plug-ins. 2009/3/3 Wayne Fay <wayne...@gmail.com> > > same story with the new mvn 2.0.10 > > maven-jar-plugin is at 2.2 > > > > Has no one else seen this? > > In all likelihood, you're one of the first people to try using > jar:sign on a custom artifact.
