Split the WAR file creation as a separate goal ----------------------------------------------
Key: MWAR-86 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-86 Project: Maven 2.x War Plugin Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 2.0.1, 2.0, 2.0.2 Reporter: Simone Gianni Priority: Minor It would be nice to have a separate goal that zips the WAR file. This way it will be possible to write (and use) plugins that manipulates the WAR folder before the WAR file is built (like applying patches, reorganizing site structure and similar stuff). Also, there are some plugins (like the cocoon deploy plugin) that actually extend the war plugin to operate "in the middle". This could be avoided (IIUC) adding these separate goal in the WAR plugin. It should be quite trivial to do, I volunteer for trying. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
