Question...concerning classifier

Hi,

during my implementations i have come to the conclusion if someone sets 
a classifier for the execution of a plugin...it would be useful to check 
the validity of the classifier...

Based on that i started to search but unfortunately i didn't found a 
definition etc. documentation how a valid classifier looks like or the 
inverse what it does not allowed to be..

So does someone know of any kind of definition how a valid classifier 
looks like? Some kind of reference ?

Kind regards
Karl Heinz Marbaise

That is pretty much what I'd come up with too. Thanks!

Classifieds are limited to the same character set as <artifactId>s and
<type>s for the same reason that they will form part of the filename.

Hi Karl,

Did you ever find what you were looking for?

I came across this in a search on classifiers as I want to be able to access them as a part of a filter/transformation when the assemble plugin does it's job.

I am finding that classifiers are not well documented their usage at all! :-(

If you build for several environments than you need classifiers (e.g. 
with maven-assembly-plugin), maven-jar-plugin (test-jar, jar), 
maven-deploy-plugin, maven-source-plugin, maven-javadoc-plugin..just 
mention some examples.. etc...i wouldn't call it evil...

Yes that's what i know of as well...

> Regarding valid characters in classifier - no idea if any exists.

Exactly that's what i'm searching for...

Hm, classifiers in plugins, not really used at all. Dependencies yes. I
guess classifier is more overhead and evil than benefit.
I remember Maven docu talked about classifier jdk1.5 as an example and
maybe environment specifics, but I guess it was the only examples in the
tutorial.
Regarding valid characters in classifier - no idea if any exists.
