---------------------------------------------

                 Key: MJAR-143
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-143
             Project: Maven 2.x JAR Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
         Environment: debian
            Reporter: Stéphane Masper


Hi Jason,
I was wondering by looking at the maven-jar-plugin source code, if it would be 
possible to add the "-validity" argument for the keytool command. This argument 
allow to specify a duration (a number of days) for the validity of the 
generated jar. Actually, the default value is '6 months' but I would like to 
increase this value as described in the keytool documentation
http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/windows/keytool.html
I think that I'm able to locate the part of the code to update to do that (I'm 
not totally sure about the global impact), it's probably in 'JarSignMojo.java' 
arount the line 
"addArgIfNotEmpty( arguments, "-sigfile", this.sigfile );
maybe that the line
addArgIfNotEmpty( arguments, "-validity", this.validity );
would be a part of the new feature, I don't know how the pom.xml is parsed, I 
guess it's maven's job..?
Thanks anyway for your reply,
Stéphane
