[jira] Commented: (MWAR-82) setting archiveClasses to true create the jar in WEB-INF/lib but does not remove WEB-INF/classes

["Piotr Tabor (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-82?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_90278 ] 

Piotr Tabor commented on MWAR-82:
---------------------------------

What commands have you been using to generate your war ?

I have an idea that the scenario was: 

" <plugin>
 <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
 <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
     <configuration>
      *<archiveClasses>false</archiveClasses><!--or missing-->*
    </configuration>
   </execution>
  </executions>
 </plugin>"

then:
    mvn package

after that user changed in pom.xml to: *<archiveClasses>true</archiveClasses>*

then:
    mvn package

In effect the final zzz.war constains both: classes and zzz.jar. 

It is reason of the target/zzz directory, which constains zzz classes ofter first "mvn package", 
and zzz.jar after the second "mvn package". 

Instead the second "mvn package" the user should use "mvn clean package", to run the
war plugin on an empty target/zzz dir. 

If the scenario is true - I think that this issue is not a bug.
