Manu Manjunath commented on MSHADE-36: -------------------------------------- Can you guys at least provide us a flag in shade plugin like this: {code:xml} <useDependencyReducedPomInJar>true</useDependencyReducedPomInJar> {code} When set to true, the {{jar}} that is built should contain {{pom.xml}} whose content is same {{dependency-reduced-pom.xml}} that shade plugin generates. That way: # Backword compatibility is maintained # Developers can keep this false if some of the dependent code is dynamically loading classes, using classloader. > Dependency reduced pom does not replace the packaged META-INF/maven version > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MSHADE-36 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHADE-36 > Project: Maven Shade Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.1 > Reporter: Mark Hobson > Priority: Major > > The dependency reduced pom needs to replace the packaged pom at: > META-INF/maven/<groupId>/<artifactId>/pom.xml > This will allow tools that use this metadata to read the correct shaded > dependencies (e.g. maven-runtime). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
