[jira] Commented: (MASSEMBLY-517) Assembly fails with empty id element now

["Brian Fox (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-517?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=240972#action_240972 ] 

Brian Fox commented on MASSEMBLY-517:
-------------------------------------

>From my POV this was a good change. Each pom can produce one artifact with a null classifier and that type should be described by the packaging type. Having an artifact like a zip deployed with a null classifier from a <packaging>pom</packaging> pom causes tons of problems with other tools trying to understand the artifact. The fact is packaging pom means it is a pom and that's it.

>                 Key: MASSEMBLY-517
>                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-517
>             Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.2
>            Reporter: Eric Haszlakiewicz
>            Priority: Critical
>
> There is a serious regression in behaviour between version 2.2-beta-5 and 2.2.  With version 2.2, assembly descriptors that have an empty id element no longer work.  i.e.:
> <assembly>
>     <id></id>
>     <formats><format>tar.gz</format></formats>
> </assembly>
>    
> The error message is:
> [INFO] [assembly:single {execution: assemble-tar-gzip}]
> [INFO] Reading assembly descriptor: src/main/assembly/assembly.xml
> [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
> [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [INFO] : org.apache.maven.plugin.assembly.model.Assembly@15fddb33
> Assembly is incorrectly configured:
> Assembly:  is not configured correctly: Assembly ID must be present and non-empty.
