>                 Key: MASSEMBLY-552
>                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-552
>             Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: dependencySet
>    Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-4
>         Environment: Ubuntu 10.10 (though also reproduces on Windows 7 and Mac.)  Java 1.6.0_24
>            Reporter: Dave Combs
>            Priority: Minor

> Issue MASSEMBLY-146 mentions a solution to a problem of including a Javadoc JAR file in a dependency by saying one can replace the 'jar' classifier with *
> (e.g. com.kaazing.gateway.core:com.kaazing.gateway.client.java.core:jar:javadoc must have 'jar' replaced with '*', or the JAR is not loaded into the assembly.
> There is also a discussion about this in a StackOverflow blog entry (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1534289/maven-include-javadoc-jar-in-assembly), where I found the '*' solution.
> It seems broken to require that users have to know about the '*' trick in order to get Javadoc JAR files included, so I wanted to file this issue specifically to address that (MASSEMBLY-146 seems somewhat more general.)  Other data included in JARs do not seem to have this problem.
