Better Validation of Assembly Descriptors -----------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-307 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-307 Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 2.1 Reporter: Brad Harper Priority: Minor Running 'assembly:assembly' from the command line produces [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------ [INFO] The assembly id null is used more than once. The same descriptor can be used successfully via 'assembly:attached', either via the command line or within a maven build lifecycle. The descriptor doesn't specify <id>assembly-name</id>. Per John Casey on [EMAIL PROTECTED], "it looks like we need to improve the validation of descriptors. None of the assembly mojos should really work without an assembly id". Descriptor validation should be improved, with self-explanatory error messages when the validation fails. -- 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
