Markus KARG created MACR-4:
------------------------------
Summary: <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> includes timestamp
instead of the string "-SNAPSHOT" for SNAPSHOT dependencies
Key: MACR-4
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MACR-4
Project: Maven ACR Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.0
Environment: Win 7 Pro SP1 (64 Bit), Maven 3.0.4, ACR 1.0
Reporter: Markus KARG
Priority: Blocker
Attachments: pom.xml
To reduce the amount of JARs linked to a client application, it is necessary to
provide a Class-Path entry in the MANIFEST of the CAR archive. When configuring
the ACR to do so using <addClasspath>true</addClasspath>, the created
MANIFEST.MF will include the timestamp of a SNAPSHOT dependency, instead of
simply the word "-SNAPSHOT". Unfortunately, the EAR plugin is unable to rename
the packaged dependencies in the same way, but simply keeps the string
"-SNAPSHOT". Effectively this leads to the fact that the Class-Path will not
contain the needed JARs at runtime, so the client will except with
ClassNotFoundException for any class inside of the SNAPSHOT dependencies.
Attached you will find a sample POM which produces this problem on my laptop.
The sole dependency will be found in the EAR later as
"quipsy-defaultgui-4.32.-12-SNAPSHOT.jar", while the MANIFEST.MF of the CAR
will have a MANIFEST containing "Class-Path:
quipsy-defaultgui-4.32.12-20120312.074725-4.jar".
Obviously the behaviour of the ACR and EAR plugings are inconsistent,
effectively preventing use of the snapshot mechanism of Maven with Jave EE
projects.
