unable to customize manifest while specifying my own descriptor file
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-465
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-465
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-5
Environment: windows
Reporter: Elisha Ebenezer
I've configured my maven-jar-plugin and maven-assembly-plugin to
add 'lib/' prefix to Classpath entries in the manifest file for
project-artifact jar. as below
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
<classpathPrefix>lib/</classpathPrefix>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
I've created my own assembly descriptor to do:
1. Place project artifact in / folder
2. Place all the dependencies (excluding project artifact) in /lib folder
<assembly>
<id>dist</id>
<formats>
<format>zip</format>
</formats>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<directory>${project.build.directory}</directory>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
<includes>
<include>*.jar</include>
</includes>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
<dependencySets>
<dependencySet>
<useProjectArtifact>false</useProjectArtifact>
<outputDirectory>lib</outputDirectory>
</dependencySet>
</dependencySets>
</assembly>
I expected the following behavior:
1. artifact jar in build directory should have manifest as mentioned in the
arhive configuration.
2. artifact jar in assembly jar should also have manifest as mentioned above.
BUT, I observed the following:
1. artifact jar in build directory is* having manifest as mentioned in archive
config.
2. artifact jar in assembly is *NOT* having the manifest as mentioned.
a. classpath has ONLY compile time dependencies and NOT runtime dependencies
b. And also, lib prefix is NOT present.
I'm not sure whether I've got my descriptor wrong or whether there is some
serious bug in the plugin. Please investigate.
