Sharing a default assembly descriptor across sub modules does not work if
invoked from parent project
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-391
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-391
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: New Feature
Affects Versions: 2.0.1
Reporter: Stephen Evanchik
Assignee: John Casey
Fix For: 2.2-beta-2
I have a multi-project folders setup like one shown below,
root
|_ sub-folder1
|_ sub-folder2
|_ sub-folder3
|_ etc
Have a root pom.xml at the root folder level and in that I have defined
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/descriptor.xml
</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Above descriptor works fine only if I have defined a descriptor file on the
src/main/assembly folder for each sub-folder1, sub-folder2, etc.
It would be great if maven supports me in defining a common assembly descriptor
and can be shared by all the sub modules from a common location.
