Kristian Rosenvold commented on MASSEMBLY-665:
----------------------------------------------
Small test project added in r1643348. The descriptor implies that there is
content residing outside the project that you want to include. In the test
project, I point to /src/test/java/test/fzz.txt . If that file exists (mounted
at /src on the root file system), the archive will be created. So this is a
legal descriptor on *nix. On windows one would be tempted to remap such a
descriptor to point to something from the root of the current drive.
Option 2 is not good,it'd change existing behaviour too much.
I kind of fancy option 3; if there's a leading slash or any kind of
windows-mannerisms in the path we should give a warning of a non-portable build.

> Key: MASSEMBLY-665
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-665
> Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Environment: sles 11 / windows 7
> Reporter: Jörg Sesterhenn
> Fix For: 2.5.3
>
>
> Given this part of a assembly descriptor:
> {code}
> <fileSets>
> <fileSet>
> <directory>src/main/script</directory>
> <outputDirectory>bin</outputDirectory>
> <filtered>true</filtered>
> <includes>
> <include>*</include>
> </includes>
> </fileSet>
> <fileSet>
> <directory>/src/main/conf</directory>
> <outputDirectory>conf</outputDirectory>
> <includes>
> <include>*</include>
> </includes>
> </fileSet>
> </fileSets>
> {code}
> Under windows 7 this packages everything as (I) expected:
> {code}
> src/
> main/
> conf/
> script/
> {code}
>
> Under linux the package misses the directory 'conf':
> {code}
> src/
> main/
> script/
> {code}
> Linux seems to interpret the directory as absolute path due to the leading
> slash.
> Please either
> * accept the above config and build the same package on any system, or
> * fail the build with an invalid descriptor error, or
> * (at least) log a warning that due to the config builds are depending on the
> OS.
