["Dennis Lundberg (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-46?page=all ]

Dennis Lundberg updated MJAR-46:
--------------------------------

    Summary: Document <manifestFile> element in configuration  (was: Document <manfiestFile> element in configuration)

> Document <manifestFile> element in configuration
> ------------------------------------------------
>
>          Key: MJAR-46
>          URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-46
>      Project: Maven 2.x Jar Plugin
>         Type: Improvement

>     Versions: 2.0
>     Reporter: Sachin Patel
>     Priority: Minor
>      Fix For: 2.1

>
>
> The maven-jar-plugin does not accept the manfiestFile element in the configuration as advertised.  The error reported is...
> [INFO] Failed to configure plugin parameters for:
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:2.1-SNAPSHOT
> Cause: Cannot find setter nor field in
> org.apache.maven.archiver.ManifestConfiguration for 'manifestFile'
> Need to mark this as a blocker as their is no way to merge an existing MANFIEST that is needed to build an eclipse-plugin.  The MANIFEST entries cannot be respecified in the plugin configuration because this would break running the plugin in a eclipse runtime-workbench.  Keeping the manifest entires in the POM and in the MANIFEST file synchronized is too much maintainance.  Need to support merging an existing manifest file.
