[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Build System] - assembly manifest entries

[scott.stark@jboss.org]

Why doesn't the assembly plugin support the same manifest configuration as the jar plugin? The docs for the assembly plugin refer to the jar plugin for manfiest info, but the following does not work:


  |       <plugin>
  | 
  |         <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  | 
  |         <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
  | 
  |         <version>2.1</version>
  | 
  |         <executions>
  | 
  |           <execution>
  | 
  |             <phase>package</phase>
  | 
  |             <goals>
  | 
  |               <goal>attached</goal>
  | 
  |             </goals>
  | 
  |           </execution>
  | 
  |         </executions>
  | 
  |         <configuration>
  |           <archive>
  |             <manifest>
  |               <addDefaultSpecificationEntries>true</addDefaultSpecificationEntries>
  |               <addDefaultImplementationEntries>true</addDefaultImplementationEntries>
  |             </manifest>
  |           </archive>
  |           <descriptors>
  | 
  |             <descriptor>assembly/bin.xml</descriptor>
  | 
  |             <descriptor>assembly/sources.xml</descriptor>
  | 
  |           </descriptors>
  | 
  |         </configuration>
  | 
  |         <inherited>false</inherited>
  | 
  |       </plugin>
  |
