--------------------------------
Summary: JAR plugin must package again when POM is newer than JAR
Key: MJAR-159
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-159
Project: Maven 2.x JAR Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Markus KARG
When the POM is modified (hence, when the JAR plugin's <manifest> or other
artifact-modifying entries are modified), obviously it is necessary to package
the JAR again to get this changes into the char (or at least, modify the
existing JAR).
It feels rather odd to the user that when he does "mvn package", the JAR is not
touched at all, while the manifest configuration is possibly completely changed!
As a solution, the JAR plugin should check whether the POM's file version is
later than the JAR's file version and package then, even if there is no other
change detected.
