Support for URL in descriptor
-----------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-589
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-589
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: New Feature
Affects Versions: 2.2.2
Environment: any
Reporter: Croesus
Being able to add a URL as a descriptor would add considerable to the
flexibility of the plugin.
So in the configuration element the following would work:
{code:xml}
...
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>http://my.website/assembly.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
{code}
The implementation could be similar to how it is done in the
maven-checkstyle-plugin, i.e. the <configLocation /> field which supports files
or URLs
