Adam Michalik closed MNG-4038.
------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Bug
Confirmed that tilde is resolved by the shell (see
http://www.vias.org/linux-knowhow/bbg_sect_03_04_03.html). Java does not
resolve it at all.
> No resolution of ~ (tilde) when installing a file to local repo
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-4038
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4038
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Command Line
> Affects Versions: 2.0.9
> Environment: Linux, JDK 6u12
> Reporter: Adam Michalik
> Priority: Minor
>
> On Linux the ~ sign (tilde) is an abbreviation for user's home directory.
> However, when installing a file to a local repository like this:
> mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=jmork -DartifactId=jmork -Dversion=1.0.4
> -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=~/Download/jmork-1.0.4/jmork-1.0.4.jar
> where the home directory is /home/adam and current directory is
> /home/adam/tmp the tilde is taken literally as if it was a directories name,
> resulting in:
> [INFO] Scanning for projects...
> [INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'install'.
> [INFO]
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [INFO] Building Maven Default Project
> [INFO] task-segment: [install:install-file] (aggregator-style)
> [INFO]
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [INFO] [install:install-file]
> [INFO] Installing /home/adam/tmp/~/Download/jmork-1.0.4/jmork-1.0.4.jar to
> /home/adam/.m2/repository/jmork/jmork/1.0.4/jmork-1.0.4.jar
> [INFO]
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [ERROR] BUILD ERROR
> [INFO]
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [INFO] Error installing artifact 'jmork:jmork:jar': Error installing
> artifact: File /home/adam/tmp/~/Download/jmork-1.0.4/jmork-1.0.4.jar does not
> exist
> Workaround:
> specify a full path or use $HOME instead of ~
> I am aware that this may be more of a Java problem and not Maven specific,
> but I thought it may be useful to report it anyway.
