[jira] [Commented] (KAFKA-1265) SBT and Gradle create jars without expected Maven files

["Sönke Liebau (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1265?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17057365#comment-17057365 ] 

Sönke Liebau commented on KAFKA-1265:
-------------------------------------

While it still holds true that the jar itself doesn't contain these files, the appropriate pom is published to maven central by Gradle and serves this purpose to a large extent.
Also, as this has been open and uncommented for more than 6 years now, the pain seems not to be too great here :)

I'd suggest we can close this?

>            Reporter: Clark Breyman

> The jar files produced and deployed to maven central do not embed the expected Maven pom.xml and pom.properties files as would be expected by a standard Maven-build artifact. This results in jars that do not self-document their versions or dependencies. 
> For reference to the maven behavior, see addMavenDescriptor (defaults to true): http://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-archiver/#archive
> Worst case, these files would need to be generated by the build and included in the jar file. Gradle doesn't seem to have an automatic mechanism for this.
