Ability to rename a dependency's jar when putting it on the lib folder
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4322
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4322
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Artifacts and Repositories
Reporter: Magno Machado Paulo
Maven put on my 'lib' folder the jars of my project's dependencies named like
<artefactId>-<version>.jar
This is a problem when we need to reference the jar filename from sourcecode,
because if we change the dependency version, we have to track all source code
references to it and correct them. This is the case when importing a taglib
into a jsp page
It would be better if Maven put only <artefactId>.jar on the lib folder. And
even better if it let us use any custom name we want for the dependencies. If
no name is specified, then it could use the current pattern.
