Multiple executions of the assembly plugin
I have to use the <repository> element in the maven-assembly-plugin's
assembly descriptor. Using this makes the assembly contains maven
metadata files under META-INF. (maven/.../*.pom and pom.propperties).
One solution Jesse and I talked about was to execute the assembly
plugin twice. The first execution would copy the repository to the
${tempRoot}. The second execution would use <fileset><exclude> to copy
the dirs over but exclude META-INF/maven.
Here are the problems with this approach.
1) If I use assembly plugin in a execution, I get a "descriptor not
found error". How can the assembly plugin be used in multiple
executions ?
2) The first execution of the assembly copies the repo into
${tempRoot}. But the next execution of the assembly cleans this dir
before starting. So the repo dirs are lost. Any ideas on how to get
around this ?
Thanx in advance
Prasad

I tied the assembly goal to a phase. Problem resolved. Thanx for looking.

Dan,
I cannot use the dependency-plugin because with it I cannot duplicate
the maven local repo structure in my assembly. The <repository>
element of the assembly's descriptor allows me to do that. However,
only the maven metadata info under META-INF/maven/* in the repo is
extraneous to me.
Cheers

maven-dependency-plugin can prepare the "staging area" for you.
