Kem Elbrader commented on MEAR-92:
----------------------------------

Executing a separate goal wouldn't perform the work done by goals in earlier 
phases e.g. ear:generate-application-xml.

Seems that the standard life cycle will often result in significant and 
unnecessary work being done. Makes me wonder whether there should be a life 
cycle devoted to situations where the resulting jar file isn't needed.

> When directory deploying an ear project often a majority of the time is spent 
> unnecessarily building the ear archive i.e. "Building jar: ...". Since it 
> isn't needed during development it'd be nice if the ear plugin could be 
> configured to stop short of actually building the archive file.
> The attahced patch adds a createEarFile property to the EarMojo class to 
> control whether to create the .ear file archive or not.
> All changes in this patch are in the EarMojo.java file which is also attached.
