[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSOURCES-11?page=comments#action_84963 ] Aaron Digulla commented on MSOURCES-11: ---------------------------------------
Have you tried this using a parent POM? Ie. move this code to the parent pom and then try to build the child project. You won't get a source JAR. Also, it would be great if the source plugin would attach itself to the package phase automatically because when I use, why would I want it to run at any other time? The default should be what most users want. > When source plugin is used, it should make sure it is invoked during install > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MSOURCES-11 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSOURCES-11 > Project: Maven 2.x Sources Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Aaron Digulla > Assigned To: Jason van Zyl > Fix For: 2.0.3 > > > I have a really hard time to make the source plugin work.
