Julien Nicoulaud commented on MASSEMBLY-628:
--------------------------------------------

This is still an annoying issue.

I could have my pom as simple as this:
{code}
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <id>package-assemblies</id>
            <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
              <goal>single</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>
        <configuration>
          
<descriptorSourceDirectory>${project.basedir}/src/assembly/descriptors</descriptorSourceDirectory>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
{code}

but because of this, I have to invoke the assembly plugin twice, list each 
descriptor in the pom, extract the descriptor contents to components, and 
duplicate the descriptor files, just to avoid a warning.

I agree this is the expected behaviour so it's not a bug, but this is is 
counter-intuitive and there is no elegant way to deal with it.

Can you please reopen this as an imrovement request ?

There are several alternatives:
 1) Turn "attach" off by default
 2) Hide warning for "dir" format as suggested earlier
 3) Add a "doNotWarnAboutAttachingDir" parameter

> When adding a "dir" format to the assembly file, it will output a bogus 
> warning like the following:
> [WARNING] Assembly file: c:\Users\visola\temp\test\target\test-1.0.0 is not a 
> regular file (it may be a directory). It cannot be attached to the project 
> build for installation or deployment.
> I think it is related to bug: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-289
> Attached is an example project that can reproduce the problem just running 
> "mvn clean install"
