it's not possible to create classes attachment without classifier
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MWAR-256
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-256
Project: Maven 2.x WAR Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.1.1
Reporter: Rafal Krzewski
I would like to package classes in my war-packaged project into a jar, but I
don't want to use default 'classes' classifier assigned by the plugin. The
generated artifacts have distinct packaging types, so there is no conflict and
the classifier provides no useful additional information. Using the following
configuration:
{quote}
{{<configuration>}}
{{<classesClassifier/>}}
{{</configuration>}}
{quote}
Results in "classes" classifier being used anyway. If I understand the behavior
correctly Plexus assigns the variable it's default value, when presented an
empty input. I don't think this can be fixed in way that is both clean and
backward compatible. Either the default value will change, which would break
existing builds that don't specify plugin version explicitly, or some clunky
additional parameter like
{{<useClassesClassifier>false</useClassesClassifier>}}, or magic value like
{{<classesClassifier>NONE</classesClassifier>}} need to be introduced.
