[jira] Commented: (MDEP-212) copy goal example should use install phase instead of package phase

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-212?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=204634#action_204634 ] 

Dan Tran commented on MDEP-212:
-------------------------------

The common usage is to have maven-dependency-plugin to populate maven artifacts to be taken over by other plugin like maven-assembly-plugin
by another phase. I myself usually set it before package phase.  Setting it as install phase is way too late.

So the current example is intended

>                 Key: MDEP-212
>                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-212
>             Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: copy
>    Affects Versions: 2.1
>         Environment: any
>            Reporter: D A
>            Assignee: Brian Fox
>            Priority: Minor

> The example usage shows:
> 						<phase>package</phase>
> 						<goals>
> 							<goal>copy</goal>
> 						</goals>
> This results in the artifact being copied from the repository before it is refreshed with the current working copy.  Switching the phase to install resolved the issue.
> My apologies if this is as intended, but I can't think of a valid reason to every copy the outdated version during a package/install, so seems the copy goal should always come after packaging.
> Also their is an entry on the FAQ page that cites an example that is not shown and not in the page source..
