Kevin Calcagno commented on MASSEMBLY-516:
------------------------------------------
I discovered this same issue. After looking at the code of the plugin, it
appears to have been an intentional change (and a good one, IMHO). But the
documentation indeed needs to be updated.

> Key: MASSEMBLY-516
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-516
> Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: -
> Reporter: Knut Pape
>
> On Page
> http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/examples/sharing-descriptors.html
> It says that the assembly file from a jar on the class-path shoulld be
> included the following way:
> <descriptors>
> <descriptor>myassembly.xml</descriptor>
> </descriptors>
> This didn't work for me. After some fidling (I'm pritty sure that the problem
> was not a spelling mistake) I came to the following solution: Instead of
> referencing the assembly by filename I referenced it by it's ID and voila -
> it worked:
> <descriptorRefs>
> <descriptorRef>my-assembly-descriptor-id</descriptorRef>
> </descriptorRefs>
