Johan Erlands commented on MASSEMBLY-532: ----------------------------------------- I can verify that this documentation misstake should be fixed. I followed the documentation nothing got into the my assembly only a warning. Even with the -X flag I couldn't see that I made a configuration error it just said it was removed by a filter... > Documentation has parts reversed for full include/exclude patterns in > dependencySet > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MASSEMBLY-532 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-532 > Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.2 > Reporter: Marshall Schor > > The documentation says: > -------------------------- > (website: > http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly.html#class_dependencySet > ) > for includes and excludes: > (Many) When <include> subelements are present, they define a set of artifact > coordinates to include. If none is present, then <includes> represents all > valid values. Artifact coordinatess may be given in simple groupId:artifactId > form, or they may be fully qualified in the form > groupId:artifactId:type:version[:classifier]. Additionally, wildcards can be > used, as in *:maven-* > -------------------------- > The book: > http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnref-book/reference/assemblies-sect-controlling-contents.html#assemblies-sect-fine-tune > says: > groupId:artifactId:type[:classifier] - conflict id > The pattern allows you to specify a wider set of coordinates to create a more > specific include/exclude pattern. > groupId:artifactId:type[:classifier]:version - full artifact identity > ========================== > Trying this out, the book seems correct, while the website ordering gives a > warning that nothing is found. The difference is: the placement of "version" > - the way that works is to put it at the end, not in the middle. > Another page on the website, > http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/advanced-descriptor-topics.html#Advanced_Artifact-Matching_in_includes_and_excludes > , also has the order for the version not at the end, which I think is wrong. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
