Documentation for referring to artifacts classpaths is wrong
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MANTRUN-104
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTRUN-104
Project: Maven 2.x Antrun Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.3
Reporter: Andreas Kohn
The documentation on
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/examples/classpaths.html
claims that referring to the path of an artifact can be accomplished with
{code}
<property name="mvn.dependency.jar"
refid="maven.dependency.my.group.id:my.artifact.id:classifier:jar.path"/>
{code}
This is using the wrong separators, ':' does not work. Instead, one needs to
use '.', like this:
{code}
<property name="mvn.dependency.jar"
refid="maven.dependency.my.group.id.my.artifact.id.classifier.jar.path"/>
{code}
Also while there: it would be nice to have the documentation be clear about the
fact that the classifier part is only set if a classifier is defined on the
artifact. For an artifact without classifier, the property would be called
maven.dependency.my.group.id.my.artifact.id.jar.path.
And of course, 'jar' should be replaced by 'type' to match the other parts.
This information now has to be found by trying the documented way, seeing it
fail, and then scanning through the debug output which eventually says:
{quote}
[INFO] [antrun:run {execution: build}]
[DEBUG] Storing:
maven.dependency.rhino.js.jar.path=/home/andreask/.m2/repository/rhino/js/1.7R1/js-1.7R1.jar
