Hesham Saleh commented on MASSEMBLY-450:
----------------------------------------
Facing the same problem in Maven 2.2.1 (rdebian-4) using the maven-jar-plugin
2.3.2. I am also convinced that an option to force overwriting a pre-existent
should be provided.
> manifestEntries ignored when manfestFile is specified
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MASSEMBLY-450
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-450
> Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-4
> Reporter: Robert Cauble
> Attachments: example.zip
>
>
> The maven jar plugin supports the behavior of manifestEntries overriding the
> manifestFile as indicated here:
> http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-manifest.html
> However, within the maven assembly plugin, if manifestFile is specified,
> manifestEntries is ignored.
> Reproduction
> ============
> > unzip example.zip
> > cd example
> > mvn package
> > cd target
> > unzip example-4.2-plugin.jar
> > cat META-INF/MANFEST
> Results:
> Manifest-Version: 1.0
> Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver
> Created-By: 14.0-b16 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
> Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
> Bundle-Name: example
> Bundle-SymbolicName: example; singleton:=true
> Bundle-Version: 1.0
> Expected:
> Manifest-Version: 1.0
> Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver
> Created-By: 14.0-b16 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
> Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
> Bundle-Name: example
> Bundle-SymbolicName: example; singleton:=true
> Bundle-Version: 4.2
> The problem appears to be in the class ManifestConfigurationFinalizer:
> if ( manifestFile != null )
> {
> ...
> manifest = new Manifest( manifestFileReader );
> ...
> }
> else
> {
> manifest = mavenArchiver.getManifest( project,
> archiveConfiguration.getManifest() );
> }
> I believe the fix is to change to the following (this already handles merging
> the manifest file with the configured manifestEntries)
> manifest = mavenArchiver.getManifest( project, archiveConfiguration );
